No doubt that Facebook is addictive social networking site, but yeah it also helps to get a great business and money; especially for bloggers. Though for an addicted user working at office it becomes hard to even open it and update his status because in most of the offices, social networks are blocked by firewalls and proxies even don’t work there. So you too are one of addicted facebook users working at office where it is blocked? Not able to surf it? Don’t worry! I have found a great plug-in for Microsoft Outlook (I think every office has its copy) using which you can easily access it, FBLook (Facebook + Outlook).

Now you can update your status message on facebook, can see your friends’ status & see the number of new requests without having to open Facebook in any of the browser or application. FbLook merges with your outlook and provide all above-mentioned things within outlook itself.

Features:

• Update your Facebook status directly from Outlook.
• Set your status to the name of the song you’re playing in itunes
• See your friend statuses.
• See notifications of new Friend Requests, Messages, Invites, Pokes, etc..

Configure [How]:

FB Look is supported by all windows versions with outlook 2003 SP3, 2007 SP2. It’s not supported by outlook express. Download it from here. After you have installed it, just open your Outlook add-ons click on login in Facebook option after that several messages will be displayed to guide you through the process. There are four steps, but they need to be followed only once.

It took me about four minutes to download and install it and I must say for people like me who use Outlook it is a great utility. Share your views about it.
