One of the things that annoys me in Outlook is when someone asks for a read receipt, today I received another mail from someone asking for a read receipt so I thought I would have a delve around the options to see if I can block this annoying feature. And after checking a few locations in the options I managed to find it, so I thought I would take the opportunity to share with you how to block this if you also find that annoying

 Go to Backstage (file)

Click options Click on Mail and scroll down to the tracking section and choose never send a Read Receipt

Then click OK and no more read receipts ever annoyance over.

For those of you who have already downloaded the Beta of Office 2010 you may have noticed the aggregation feature in Outlook 2010, when you now click on an email you will notice at the bottom of the reading pane a new feature which when clicked shows you all the past messages from that person also there is an add button which when clicked takes you to the Outlook 2010 social connector page where you can download currently the 32 bit beta version of the LinkedIn connector

This will allow you to see activity and update your status and colleagues on your LinkedIn network. Also coming soon are connectors for Facebook, My Space and Windows live. How much longer I wonder do we have to wait for someone to write a twitter add in, now that would make my day. I also today found on YouTube a great video on the whole social media revolution which I thought I would share with you.
