I have always thought that one man of tolerable abilities may work great changes, and accomplish great affairs among mankind, if he first forms a good plan, and, cutting off all amusements or other employments that would divert his attention, make the execution of that same plan his sole study and business.
– Benjamin Franklin
Sometimes, you come across a piece of technology so blindingly obvious, you wonder how it didn’t already exist.
Consider Kwaga’s excellent WriteThat.Name: it plucks information from people’s email signatures, and uses it to update your Gmail contacts.
It’s so effective, I’ve now stopped manually entering contacts into my address book, and simply synch my iPhone directly with my Gmail contact list.
Definitely worth giving WriteThat.Name a try yourself.
