Microsoft, one of the largest software companies of the world with revenues of $ 58 billion in 2009, is planning to make its outlook software more social. It was revealed by group product manager Dev Balasubramaniam through a video posted on their website. It is said that Outlook 2010 will allow us to interact with the leading social networking sites like Facebook, LinkedIn and MySpace. This will give the mailing software a substantial competitive advantage over other mailing softwares. The only problem which they may face is the up gradation of current customers of lower version of outlook to the Outlook 2010. However, this innovative product will help them launch themselves in the huge market of social networking.
The timing of the announcement might help Microsoft take advantage over the controversies over privacy to Google Buzz users.
