Xobni v1.4 – Index Folder Selection, Performance Enhancements and LinkedIn Integration, oh my…

Xobni Blog - Out is In: Xobni + LinkedIn = Job titles, Employer, and Pictures

“Today we’re launching a new version of Xobni that we’re very excited about. Early during the life of Xobni we realized that email is about people, but no existing email clients gave people the priority they deserve. We quickly seized on what we believe is a huge opportunity to build a more socially aware email environment. We’ve long believed this idea extends beyond email to other sources of relationship data, both on the desktop and on the web.

What you will find in version 1.4:

LinkedIn integration

Xobni users will now see LinkedIn public profile data automatically displayed in Xobni profiles. You will see the job title and the employing company of the person you are emailing with. …

…

Keyboard shortcuts

This feature is for our power Xobni users – thanks for your feedback! We have implemented the following keyboard shortcuts for use with Xobni.

…

Folder selection

Another feature many of our users want is the ability to select or deselect folders or outlook data stores that you want included in Xobni’s search results and person profiles.

…

Performance improvements

We are constantly working to improve the performance of Xobni. We also work hard to limit our interaction with the native Outlook email client. We have made two great steps in improving both of these areas. …”

The Folder Selection is a huge addition for me. I have 6-7GB+ of work emails (10+ years) and have to have a way to tell Xobni to ignore the older PST’s. With that and the performance improvements, I think it’s time to put it back on my work PC and see how it goes (it’s been on my home PC for forever :)
