The new Ink Workspace.

One of the first announcements coming out of Microsoft's Build 2016 conference this week is a slate of new Windows 10 stylus features for the Surface Pro and other pen-equipped devices.
The first new feature is the "Ink Workspace." Tapping the top of the pen on a Surface Pro brings up a new panel with common pen apps. In the demo, large tiles were reserved for Sticky Notes, Sketchpad, and Screen Sketch, along with a smaller set of tiles for "recently used" apps. At the bottom of the panel is a "Suggested" section, which promotes pen apps from the Windows Store. The promotion of pen apps is another upgrade to the Windows 10 ecosystem—there's now a dedicated section for apps that support styluses.
Sticky Notes can now be used to feed reminders into Cortana. In the demo, writing "Call mom tomorrow" caused "tomorrow" to be highlighted, and tapping on the word brought up Cortana to set a reminder. Bing is integrated, too, so sticky notes will be able to recognize places and link to maps.
