Microsoft off late has been on a roll and has whole heartedly embraced the mobile first, cloud first vision of CEO Satya Nadella. It has been launching new applications and services across platforms, even before Windows. According to details uncovered by Twitter user @H0X0D information about a new Microsoft app called Flow has surfaced.
According to the details published Flow will be an instant messaging application that will compliment Outlook for the iPhone.
