Contact Tags

One of the great things about getting a product into beta is that you start to hear some awesome ideas from your early users. A number of people have suggested that we add tagging for contacts. That's a great idea and I'm wondering why we didn't think of it :-).

We quickly put together a crash effort. And we now have Tags!

You can enter any number of tags for a contact. They are displayed as part of the 'business card'. Click on a tag and it takes you to the contact browser to see all the other contacts with that tag. We will be adding a contact tag cloud soon.

Keep those terrific ideas coming in!

its good to have tags,
however, can you make it easier to use tags by being able to select a tags used to other people, thus make it easier to choose contacts with same tag, otherwise some time you have to type exact name for a 'tag' to achieve it.

second thing, when you use 'tag browser' the table of list of contact doesn't have contacts' telephone / mobile / email ,etc . i believe it will be good to see all those telephone/mobile /email then the user can simply call/email their contact with this same tag easily.

thanks for listening.

regards
