The future of the Web currently appears to be all about words that end in -ating. Aggregating multi-platform social computing activity within a single platform to make it easier to keep track of who’s saying what, where, when and to whom. And integrating stand-alone apps into established applications and practices to make both a bit more useful. The lastest example in the latter category is OutTwit , an application that integrates Twitter with Microsoft Outlook. Lets you update your Twitter feed from Outlook and monitor the feeds of everyone you’re following also through Outlook. Here’s more information about it. Incidentally, I learned about this when I alt+Tabbed out of Outlook over to Facebook and saw it in one of my friend’s status updates. I’m still pretty primitive: I still go out hunting for updates instead of funneling them into an aggregator so they all come to me. All in good time…
