Taking a new step in the evolution of its e-mail Outlook , Microsoft Corp. confirmed that in the near future the program will be a center of social information by integrating social networking services Facebook and MySpace .

After the download should visit LinkedIn
to confirm the add-on. Something similar will happen to the plug-ins
Facebook and MySpace when ready to download in June, with the launch of Office 2010. This post was originally published in TechTear.com – Blog Magazine Technology and Business Internet
