Xobni and Digsby

Managing the numerous social networking sites, e-mail accounts, and instant messaging programs can be a hassle when trying to keep up with family and friends who are on different services. I have found and am using 2 programs that makes this clutter of communication outlets a little easier.

Xobni ("inbox" backwards) is a sidebar for outlook which can index your past and present e-mails and the contacts who send and receive them. it creates profiles where you can view their linked in and facebook information and even creates histograms for each contact so you can see who you email the most.

Digsby is an all-in-one messenger program which lets you access and control almost all of the popular instant messengers, social networking accounts, email accounts including IMAP and POP as well as hotmail, yahoo, gmail, etc.

With an increasing world population using so many of these services, there are now more creative ways of managing your internet social life.
