Xobni Brings Twitter Into Outlook

Xobni, a creator of plug-ins for Microsoft Outlook, released a new version of its software that displays the recent Tweets of the person whose email users are reading, whether or not they follow them on Twitter, according to TechCrunch.

Previous versions of the Xobni client offered information from Facebook, LinkedIn or Skype, and the new version adds the ability for users to reply directly via Twitter, TechCrunch reported.
