I'm still waiting for the time when we will be able to touch each other's phones to exchange info.
- Sasha Kovaliov
looks great! Waiting for the Europe version ;)
- Lorenzo Strambi
This looks promising especially for sales people with many contacts and are always on the road.
- Lon Cohen
Very sweet. This is the type of app that drives a market.
- Fred McClimans
Hey Robert, Check out My Name is E, they already handle Twitter, FaceBook, etc. Let's set up a demo when your free. (fyi, I am on their Board)

So is this like a plaxo client for the phone? (i.e. canonical copy held be web service)
- Boris Gordon
Great idea, bummer that the app is failing on my Blackjack. Looks like I'll have to wait for a future release.
- Paul Dockter
Looked great but was immediately disappointed that it didn't work in Europe. US only at the moment.

After using it, it seems to be missing useful features. You can't add a profile picture. You can't add a paragraph to list personal or professional information. Essentially, it's just contact information. Why not leverage the power of this being electronic and add features?
- Paul Maez
Why can you only add one IM service and one Social link? No pic either?
- Shawn Hickman
I have to wonder whether these types of applications can ever really generate the traction needed to become anything more than a passing fad. If you want to exchange business information why not SMS/email/whatever your .tel address? Or is no-one using .tel?
- Gee Ranasinha
To answer and ask you a question, what is .tel?
- Brian Bufalo
from IM
No software to install, and works in every country. Here's my info if you're interested http://kexino.tel
- Gee Ranasinha
Gee, does that mean that everyone has to buy a .tel address?
- Shawn Hickman
err...yes, in the same way that you'd buy a URL. But at about €15/$20 per year it's not that bad. What I like about it is that all your details are stored directly in the DNS without the need for an application, website or anything else and the information is accessible from any device.

Reminds me of the old Palm Pilot; let you "beam" your contact info via infrared. That was great fun
