Fun with XING
Xing - "Sing" or "Crossing" depending on who you believe, is a social networking site big in Germany ... think LinkedIn auf deutsch or in Cantonese, increasingly.
I've used it for around three years and it's quite useful in tracking my contacts - think Plaxo without all those irritating emails.
Although it's not new, the XING plug-in for Outlook is improved, and I used it for the first time to import my contacts. To my delight, they come complete with picture - so now when I open up an email from anyone in my address book whose pic is on their Xing profile, I get their smiling (usually) face. Cute.
