Skype with Outlook

There isn’t any noticeable Skype logos in Outlook, but the functionality is integrated in. This makes it easier to access your Outlook contacts via Skype. When you hover the pointer over a contact, the following box pops up and displays the different ways you can contact them. You can use Skype to call, IM, or video chat. It also lets you call you contact’s cell or landline.

Other improvements are adding and searching your contacts easier.

It also improves the Profile page so you can find contacts easier as well as more information about them.
