Windows 8 101: Work and play with snap!

Multitasking is a method where multiple tasks or processes, are performed during the same period of time.

An aero feature called Snap was first introduced in Windows 7 which allow the user to snap two windows on each side of the desktop to create a perfect half window. This is very useful when comparing documents, copy reading or you just want to do two things at the same time like watching a movie while doing something productive. Most of the aero features of Windows 7 – snap, peek, shake is still available in the Windows 8 desktop to give the user seamless experience in working with desktop applications.

In Windows 8, multi-tasking has made even better with the Snap feature where you can run two apps side-by-side, imagine chatting with a friend while doing your PowerPoint presentations, or perhaps tweeting while watching a movie or playing a game.
