Posted: 18 Feb 2010 06:08 PM PST

Another set of feature will be added to Microsoft Outlook 2010 Beta, the Outlook Social Connector. And of course, what do you expect? of those buzzing moments, status here and there, pictures upload, tweets, what else? hmm plurking features, since its networking, of course building your own Network. My question, is this Microsoft move, another threat of number one online social networking site? the facebook? I bet not!
