Slide To Shutdown
One of the (many) complaints people had about Windows 8, was how unnecessarily awkward it was to shut it down. Windows 8.1 makes that aspect of things much easier. You can still go through the Charms bar, but you can also now right-click the new Start button and shut down, or sign out there.
There is another method though, and that’s to use the “Slide to shutdown your PC” option. This isn’t activated by default, but it’s easy to summon, and you can create shortcuts for it.
