Comments on: It’s Not an App, It’s a Feature Redux: Xobni Hubris http://profy.com/2008/04/30/xobni-hubris/ Internet news and commentary Tue, 25 Oct 2011 11:44:19 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 By: UKStevieB http://profy.com/2008/04/30/xobni-hubris/comment-page-1/#comment-3733 UKStevieB Thu, 01 May 2008 10:39:55 +0000 http://profy.com/2008/04/30/xobni-hubris/#comment-3733 When I first heard about Microsoft being interested in Xobni I was a little disappointed, they had been hoping to roll out Xobni for Gmail and Thunderbird at some point, both of which I use far more than Outlook, so for me this is good news. Maybe that was the problem, the creators of Xobni may have felt that they were not creating an extension for Outlook, but an extension for everyone's inbox whichever client they used, and so felt that limiting themselves now was the wrong way to go.
