Using the Microsoft Lync 2010 API, you can:

• Extend an existing application by integrating a conversation window created with, and make the new conversation window appear to be native to a customer's business application.

• Replicate many advanced features of Microsoft Lync 2010 within your own application while suppressing the user interface (UI) of Lync 2010. The Model API has the power and flexibility to allow your application to act as the only visible client of Microsoft Lync 2010.
