Outlook.com is the most popular email application released by Microsoft. Recently, they had to face very strong competition with Google and now the Outlook.com is trying its best to get the email crown back. As a step towards it, Microsoft transferred all the users of hotmail.com to their new messaging application and also by integrating Skype in google.com. This has raised the convenience factor of Outlook.com five times more than previous. To reach the next step, Microsoft has included Google chat integration in Outlook.com. Thus, an Outlook user will be able to chat with his/her friends in the Google contacts by using the Outlook application.
It is a very good option for Outlook.com to integrate Google chat when considering the versatility of Google chat. By using Google chat, a user will be able to chat with the friends in Facebook and Skype without any problems. Once this feature comes in Outlook application, its results can be seen within the initial days itself. A prompt will appear on your Outlook screen where it asks you for the permission to connect your Outlook account to the Google account. All you need is to type your Google login information, then a window will appear on your screen asking for Google request for permission. When you grant the permission, you are automatically connected to your Gmail account using Outlook.
When this is done, Outlook will populate the People contact manager and all the contacts of your Google account will appear on your Messaging contacts. Moreover, this Google chat integration will also benefit the cloud storage service of Microsoft called SkyDrive. This will come handy, if you need to chat with your associates and work on a document. Douglas Pearce, the group program manager for connected services wrote in a post, “If you’re working together on a document with a Google friend, you can be chatting with them at the same time without leaving SkyDrive, You can even share a link to the document and edit it together in real time.”
Even with these features, Microsoft still needs to fix some issues and once all the issues are fixed, Outlook.com can go toe on toe with Google. With these steps, it is evident that Microsoft is seriously trying to reshape Outlook.com and trying to enter direct competition with Google chat service.
