Lync Server announced

Just few days ago, Microsoft announced that their newest communication product, called Lync will become available in December. The company itself calls the product "the future of communications", and there are grounds to that: video conferencing, chat and online availability information, and VOIP calls.

All this sounds great, and for developers, this product could help teams and customers communicate. Personally, I'm much looking forward to Office 365, of which Lync will be part of.

Another thing is that Lync can be readily extended. Watch for the forth-coming Lync SDK kit. I might run an article on CodeGuru.com on this sometime next year, so stay tuned.
