Xobni Beta Now Open to the Public [Beta Beat]
Posted in May 4th, 2008
Windows only: Previously mentioned Microsoft Outlook plug-in Xobni (pronounced “zob-nee”) is now available to the public for immediate download. Previously in invite-only beta, Xobni adds email analytics, better contact cards, fast search, threaded conversations, and more to your Outlook inbox. The NY Times explains one way Xobni makes your inbox more of a social network of connected contacts:
Xobni recognizes that if an executive sends a copy to someone else on each message he or she sends, it might be to an assistant or another colleague. When someone using Xobni searches for that executive in Outlook, the second person is listed as well.
Huh-wha, you ask? Here, have a video demonstration of Xobni in action.
The Xobni beta download is free, and works with Microsoft Outlook in Windows.

Look, we’re not saying that FlipStart is on the way out, but when your “store” page tells people that the stock of your device has been “sold out” and then directs them to a third-party retailer for accessories, things might not be looking so good.
