• When choosing to edit a page, now the well-known Office ribbon bar debuts in SharePoint 2010, including Central Administrator, allowing an much improved users interface.
• Pictures can be navigated to your computer while inserting onto the page, and SharePoint takes care of uploading it into the Images library.
• Fluid experience without the cumbersome page refreshing.
• Multiple document checkout, without the multiple page refreshes.
• Document Sets - Create a set of documents as a single entity and apply workflows, metadata and content types to the set. Build a template to create multiple documents.
• Organize a library with metadata and rate documents
• Ability to view documents in the browser and not require the client application (MS Office).
• Co-edit a single document at the same time. View how many people are editing a document and who is editing. (Very interested to see how changes are integrated from both and which overwrite.)
• Note Board - add a note about the document, presentation.
• My Site now My Profile
• Activity Feed - leave a note for someone else with a question and check out a new or updating document.
• Tag Cloud and recent blog posts
• People Search now ran by FAST and able to provide more relevant results
• View recent content - things the person has authored or edited relating to the search
• Browse someone in the org chart
• Choose to following colleagues and receive notice when they update or author content in SharePoint
• Tag documents with metadata for searching, filtering, grouping, and sorting.
• Leave Notes on a document or Document Set
• Leave a note on someone's Note Board
• Subscribe to RSS feeds for modifications made to documents and view the change without opening the document.
• Post a picture in a blog from an address. After the blog is published, the image will update when the data is updated. (i.e. Excel chart updating with new or revised data)

More to come on the above....
