I'm in the process of writing an Outlook AddIn for a FrOGTech project.
As you may or may not know, I am a staunch Microsoft dislikerer because, well, they make you pay for stuff and everything. And just when you're settled into a nice development routine, they go and release a newer, shinier version that you have to purchase, adopt and learn.
The nerve.
Don't get me started on Internet Explorer. Internet Deplorable more like.
Microsoft only like utilising standards they make up themselves and bugger the rest of the world.
That being said, I'm in the midst of writing this AddIn for Outlook and I gotta tell ya, its quite a snap to develop.
The AddIn takes a selected mail item or contact and extracts the data and throws it into a database via a webservice. Neat.
So even though they're a bunch of greedy bums, their stuff actually works!
