Our buddy Fabian just put out his latest app, AddresSave, which automatically takes contact info from your email and adds it to your address book.
As you probably know, there are other apps out there that do something similar such as Gwabbit. One thing I like about AddresSave, that isn’t included in Gwabbit, is the option to set a “block” list. With this option, you avoid unnecessary entries.
As this is a new application, it would be interesting to see how well it can sniff out redundancies over a long period of usage.
gwabbit is running a contest called “Get the Gift of gwab” where by sharing gwabbit with your friends and colleagues, you can win a gwabbitized Flip MinoHD camcorder.
It’s so easy – here’s how it works:
1. Go to the Get the Gift of Gwab site.
2. Verify your email address and click either the Facebook or LinkedIn Share icons to share with your friends and colleagues
3. Invite your friends and colleagues to try gwabbit for free
If 10 or more of your friends download gwabbit, you get a free custom gwabbit coffee mug (the gwabbit mug is only available through this promotion). There is no obligation to buy a thing.
The 5 participants with the most friends will get a gwabbitized Flip MinoHD camcorder.
gwabbit will keep score and send participants a note from time-time to let them know how they’re doing. Get the Gift of Gwab runs from July 7 through midnight pacific time July 17.
The contest guidelines are:
Limit one prize per participant
Must be 18 or older to play
Email addresses must be valid to count toward prizes
