This program is ok, but the Broadlook Contact Capture application is far superior and it’s free! Plus it parses from anything, not just Outlook. This application is second rate at best.

Good looking out, Andy! LinkedIn actually licensed the technology from us (Anagram). The downside is that it only works from text grabbed from within Outlook and does not work with appointments.

If you are on LinkedIn, the LinkedIn toolbar for Outlook works similarly. You do have to highlight the text in an email, but then it automatically creates a contact for it. It also has a button to find updates of contact info in LinkedIn profiles and prompts you if it’s been a while since you contacted a LinkedIn connection. And it’s free. (You can also download the vcard from any LinkedIn profile into Outlook without a plug-in, directly from your browser.) LinkedIn is also free.

I’ve got to say I just tried Gwabbit and I’m not very impressed. It did a pretty poor job of parsing contact details out of the emails that I threw at it

I’d second the recommendation for Anagram, a truly great program that parses sig blocks and converts them into contacts (or updates existing contacts). Anagram goes beyond gwabbit by also creating events/appointments based on the text that is scanned. http://www.getanagram.com
