Email Plugs Into Social Networking

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft Research recently released SNARF, the Social Network and Relationship Finder. It works in the Outlook email client to prioritize and sort emails based on the relationship to the sender and other characteristics of incoming email messages. Trusted Reviews wonders if 2006 is the year of ordering information and reports on ClearContext, which does similar prioritization of emails as well as some email driven task management."

7. snarf link send redefine 6 up, 12 down
American slang of the 1920's and 30's referring to someone who draws pleasure from sniffing the seats of girls' bicycles.

Orkut just failed to peak and come, no matter how hard they tried... sometimes one just isn't in the mood. To make sure yours doesn't fail, don't drink too much and make sure she doesn't have a headache.
