How many applications is too many applications?

Applications

The promise of Web 2.0 is that out there someone clever has designed an application that will solve every last little problem that you may encounter during your online life.  Whether it's creating your blog, publicising it, making notes, keeping projects on the go or keeping uptodate with your friends - there is an application for it.

The downside of finding the perfect application for every job can be a spreadsheet with a multitude of login details.  Now that's necessarily the worst of it - because there are applications that are built to hold this information.

Rather it's the sheer number of applications to open and monitor during a regular workday.  It was working with this problem that set the Unified Inbox development team to thinking about how to incorporate the best of Web 2.0 into the heart of their unified inbox.

Over the coming weeks, Unified Inbox will be publishing information on the applications you can integrate into your inbox.
