Microsoft will now support LinkedIn in its upcoming
version of Microsoft Office without users having to download any additional
software.
The announcement made by LinkedIn on its blog stated that
users would be able to log into Outlook using their LinkedIn credentials. This
will allow them to view profile information like photos and status updates of
other users who email them.
Moreover, a user's LinkedIn information will be merged
with Outlook's contact cards. The blog also mentioned that LinkedIn is working
closely with the software giant on a new LinkedIn for Outlook application for
the new Office app store. More details will be revealed soon.
The business-networking site recently rolled out its redesigned
homepage resembling the likes of Facebook and Google+ with the aim to offer
users with more relevant news and information based on their industry and
connections.
