Keeping your address book up to date is always a tasking process. While a few apps exist that supposedly comb your contacts for updates, those only work if they actually update their information. Tech blog Digital Inspiration has come up with a simple Google Script that you send to contacts so they can update their information themselves.
Your contacts are often scattered across multiple email accounts and social sites. Here's how to seamlessly combine them all by using Google Contacts as your unified address book.
A new feature in Google's Picasa image management application, which is incredibly good at identifying faces, allows you to set Google Contacts photos for every contact you have a picture of in a couple clicks.
If you've ever wanted to consolidate all your contacts — from Google Contacts, Facebook, LinkedIn, your desktop address book and your phone — into one comprehensive bucket you can effortlessly sync and export anywhere, then you've come to the right place.
Google Apps users and those looking for a central, convenient spot for their contacts, take note: Google's stand-alone contacts site now lets anyone with a Google account add and manage names and details.
We pointed out a standalone Google Contacts page once before that used a URL from deep inside Gmail, but it looks like since then Google has made it even simpler to access your contacts: Just point your browser to http://www.google.com/contacts and enjoy.
