Xobni getting good press, offers Outlook plug-in
Xobni (inbox spelled backwards) is a windows-only, freeware application that adds some pretty neat features to Microsoft Outlook. Some of these features are really gee-whiz and some actually seem pretty useful.
Basically Xobni adds another panel to the right side of Outlook which displays all kinds of helpful information about your email.
It displays some of the sender's contact info, the frequency of their emails, times at which they're sent, etc. It also provides threading for your conversations, which is actually pretty neat too. That is, you can click on a particular conversation and Xobni will assemble the thread in the panel.
Check out the video for a better explanation.
Both TechCrunch and LifeHacker have good write ups (and invite codes to boot). See also Web Worker Daily and Mashable as well.
Xobni is in private beta at the moment. I've got 5 invites if anyone is interested in trying it out.

Sorry Henry. Your invite is on its way. I missed your email address that you wrote in plain site.

tyler.inquirer[at]gmail[dot]net
thanks for an interesting blog !
Can you convince me to use Outlook again? :-)
Hey everyone. I sent out some invites but got stuck. Unrelated to either Outlook or Xobni, but to a broken Nero installation, I did a system restore which broke a number of things, including the Xobni install. The Xobni installation files also disappeared and I'm trying, through customer support, to get another install/invite code. So for now, no new updates.
Scott (SQPJTaipai), if you haven't looked at Outlook2007 you should check it out. The task management is great, as is the interoperability between tasks, mail, calendar and, above all OneNote!
Hi Jeff, Thanks for the Xobni feedback. This looks very interesting. Here is my email in case you have am extra invite. Thanks! 7eric7 [at] gmail
Thanx for the invite Jeff.
I've been using xobni for about 2wks now... I agree with the performance lag that Outlook takes but so far i'm liking it. its been particularly useful as i input info into my calendar and have the email in the xobni panel instead of having to flip back and forth.
haven't done anything with the analytics yet but i give you my thoughts when i get the chance to.
Are you all out of invites? I'd love to get one!
Hey Eric and MadScientist,
Thanks for your comments guys. As per my last comment, I don't have any more invitations available. Sorry about that!
Chaulks, I like the analytics too, but I'm not sure what I do with them other then appease my curiosity. :)
Take care all! Thanks for stopping by.
hey i know i'm probably fighting a losing battle, but i really need a xobni ivite code, if anyone knows where to get one, email me at jimbobcarnie [at] hotmail.com, thanks a lot
Sorry Jim, I don't have any left. Thanks for
Know good tool for recover data and more exactly for mails-outlook 2007 repair pst,as far as I know software has free status and it helped me many times,also program can help to extract data from corrupted files in *.ost and *.pst format and avoid losing of critical contacts, calendars and messages,tool is compatible with all supported versions of Microsoft Windows, besides Microsoft Outlook 2007 you can use any other version of this email client,extract data from corrupted files in *.ost and *.pst format and avoid losing of critical contacts, calendars and messages,can preview the results and make sure, that all emails were repaired successfully.
When I closed my MS Outlook my computer saw to me blue screen and went off.This was terrifically.To my surprise myself helped next utility-export mail from .ost file,which I found in a big community.Program is free as far as I know,besides that application can as well export ost file without Outlook and export data from ost file to pst.
