On the social networking side, Outlook.com syncs up with most of the usual suspects including Facebook (FB), Twitter and LinkedIn, and also updates contact information whenever anyone changes information in their Facebook or Twitter profile. Outlook.com also automatically filters all social networking emails detailing status updates into their own specific folder thus further eliminating inbox clutter without any additional user input. Outlook has incorporated Facebook’s instant messaging system as well, so users can connect through IM with their Facebook friends directly from their inboxes.
Finally, the new Outlook.com will give users access to Microsoft’s suite of productivity tools including Microsoft Word, Excel, SkyDrive and PowerPoint right from their inboxes. Microsoft promises that it will soon add Skype video calling capabilities to its Outlook.com inbox as well, meaning that users will be able to have video chats with one another directly through their email system rather than going through a separate app.
