Office Online adds Dropbox support
In November of 2014 Microsoft and Dropbox announced they were integrating Office and Dropbox. Initially this allowed users of Office Mobile to open and save Office documents from their Dropbox accounts. Missing at the time was support for accessing those documents without or while away from a Microsoft Office client.
This week Microsoft has announced Dropbox integration for Office Online. Now you can access your Dropbox files from any web browser and edit them in Office.

Change your DropBox password immediately
Dropbox users should update their passwords and enable two-factor authentication. A hacker is claiming to have collected 7 million usernames and passwords.
To change your password, log in to your Dropbox account, click on your name and choose “settings.” Then, click on the security tab. If you have not already configured it, configure for two factor authentication.
At this time Dropbox states they have not been hacked and that any information collected is from third party apps.
