`information in an Excel workbook on your OneDrive, you can open the workbook in your
`browser anytime and slice your data in different ways to make decisions.

`Brainstorm together
`Brainstorming loses steam if you have to take turns, waiting for one person to finish editing
`the notebook before you can add your ideas. By using OneNote for the web you can add your
`notes while other people are working in the notebook, even if some people have the
`notebook open in the OneNote desktop application.
`Go ahead and make your changes. OneNote for the web lets you see who made which
`changes, and you can roll pages back to an earlier version if someone made changes that you
`don’t want.
`
`To keep track of who is contributing which pieces of content, click the View tab, and then
`click Show Authors.
`
`To view an earlier version of a page, click Page Versions on the View tab, and then click the
`time stamp for the version that you want to see.
