After more than a year in beta, Beloved Outlook add-in Xobni is now an official product. Better yet, it’s still free (though a premium version is in the works) and it runs much faster than before. Here’s a look at what’s new and improved.
Actually, there’s nothing all that new in Xobni 1.7, but much has been improved:
- Outlook now starts 31% faster, and profiles load 42% faster.
- You now have the choice to make Xobni start immediately with Outlook, or start only when you want to use it.
- You can control how often and how much data Xobni indexes.
- Fixed compatibility issues with BlackBerry Desktop software, MobileMe, Microsoft Office Communicator, and other applications.
If you’re an Outlook user and you haven’t tried Xobni, you’re missing out on a truly excellent tool. It’s definitely a favorite ’round these parts. [via Download Squad]
