IBM has released a new version of its popular Lotus Notes software to prevent more corporate clie-nts from opting for Microsoft’s Outlook. Lotus Notes 8 has additional applications which allow users to ‘mash up’ calendars with instant messaging, mapping and social-networking programmes.
In 2003, IBM had lost out to Microsoft’s Outlook in the fierce competition for corporate clients. Despite losing the number one slot, Lotus Notes remains the most popular software of IBM. One advantage of Lotus Notes, which IBM is now publicising in earnest, is that it can be used in most operating systems. Outlook can only be used in the Windows platform. IBM relea-sed Lotus Notes 8 after testing it with 30,000 clients.
