I've been using Apple's new Mac update for a few days — here are my favorite features so far by Lisa Eadicicco on Sep 29, 2015, 11:00 AM Advertisement
 Apple's new operating system for the Mac, El Capitan, officially launches on Wednesday. It's similar to the update Apple recently released for the iPhone earlier this month — like iOS 9, it's a subtle change that makes it easier to multitask. It's not an aesthetic change, so your Mac won't look or feel any different when you upgrade. But there are a few handy features that you'll want to make use of once you install it. Here are the tricks I found most useful during the few days I've spent using the software. (Note: This isn't a comprehensive list of everything that's new in El Capitan, it's just a compilation of the features that I found most useful).

This makes it a lot faster to find information since you don't have to open a web browser. 
You can also type search queries in your natural language rather than entering in keywords when searching in Spotlight. For example, you can type something like "photos I downloaded" rather than trying to remember the name of the file. 
You can download extensions for Apple's Photos app through the App Store. These extensions add new editing features to Apple's existing Photos app. It's a great way to sample a few features of an app without buying the whole thing. DxO Labs, whose app is shown below, is releasing an extension for Photos.
