Xobni, my favorite plugin for Outlook, has just got better after more public API has been consumed and allowing it to interact with popular third party applications and web services such as Skype, Yahoo Mail and LinkedIn. You can now read your yahoo mail in outlook but will still need to open up the webpage of Ymail to be able to send a new email.
It’s all about consolidating services into one these days, and I love the work of those talented developers who have put in the hard work to make that possible. Another popular application that I’m using is Digsby which allows you to connect to Hotmail, Yahoo Mail, Gmail, ICQ, MSN, YIM, Facebook, Myspace and LinkedIn in a single desktop application and stay connected to these services all at the same time. I think it’s even more powerful then Xobni in certain aspects as it provides more servies to connect to.
