improve Linked-in contact recognition
I've just started using Rapportive and it's very cool, except that Lilnked-in contacts are not appearing on your sidebar very often. When I click, your message box finds that they are there after all. Annoying
2 votesHi Nick,
That doesn’t sound right… is Rapportive showing people on LinkedIn as though you were not connected to them even though they are?
Could you please let me know of an email address for which this happens?
Thanks,
Conrad

HI Syd,
That’s an awesome idea! Now we’ll just have to find some icons.
Interesting — before we had the call button we used to have the type of phone number in text on the right. Maybe we should combine the two instead. I’ll give it some thought.

Integration with Evernote
Hello! I'm really enjoying Rapportive! It seems much easier, faster and more intuitive than the corporate-based Xobni. I do have one idea: are there any plans to build in an Evernote integration similar to Xobni? The reason why I think this would be so powerful would be:
1. The ability to integrate note about contacts directly into Evernote.
2. Save contact information from Rapportive directly to Evernote.
3. Browse notes about that contact already tagged in Evernote.
Thanks so much and great job on a really helpful tool!

That’s an awesome idea! (And very clearly explained, thank you).
We didn’t have any plans to do this, but now you’ve mentioned it…. :)

Send URL to raplet on mouse over
I would love to make a rapplet to parse scriptlance links in the email to show an open/closed status. It seems like the API only sends name, email and twitter usernames. Could you change this behavior with a custom rapplet? i.e. to parse for links matching x and send them to the custom rapplet URI.
3 votesHi Andy,
We were thinking of adding a parameter to the raplet protocol that says “Please can I see too”. I think that would be usable as a way of getting the subject :).
Unfortunately that’s not likely to happen for a little time, as we’re pretty busy right now, but I’ll let you know when it’s available.

Tell people how it's suppossed to work exactly
Installed on Firefox ok, then checked Gmail, nothing there.
What exactly does Rapportive do?
Could you provide some better installation and use instructions, perhaps some screenshots, so we know what if anything is supposed to happen.
Also some instructions on how and what it can be used for.
I get the marketing blurb on your home page, unfortunately there's nothing else on your site that actually helps me understand what it is and how to use it.
1 voteHi,
Yes — we really need a first-user-introduction so that you know what’s going on!
In order to actually see Rapportive you need to open an email inside Gmail — does that work for you?

Building Contact Database
Since rapportive is able to connect to various social networking sites, cant it built a parallel address book which remains most updated with information / changes from the social networking sites.
1 voteHi Vaibhav,
In a way we already do that — are you wanting a way to see the information that we’re storing about all your contacts at the same time, instead of just in the side of your Gmail?

Why does adding Facebook have to open 2 windows
Can it not be as simple as Linked in
1 voteHi David,
I thought Facebook only opened one window? Can you send a screenshot to supportive@rapportive.com of what you’re seeing?
Thanks.

allow users to request a Shared Dropbox folder invite.
Sharing a Dropbox folder through Rapportive might be useful. Dropbox has a public folder but it's configured to only permit sharing of individual files, not the entire directory. But there is a shared folders function, you just have to invite users via email. Perhaps a Dropbox raplet for a shared directory specified by the user, and a "Share Files" button, that alerts the Dropbox owner one of their contacts would like access?
5 votesHi Jonah,
Interesting idea — let me be sure I’ve got what you’re suggesting:
I (on my Rapportive profile) publish my dropbox folder, and then you (my friend) can see that I have a shared dropbox folder and ask for access to it with a single click?

Fix Rapportive when PeerBlock is On
Why does Rapportive become blocked when Peer Block is on? What IPs should be unblocked?
3 votesHi Ganesh,
Rapportive is hosted on Heroku, which is in turn based on Amazon’s cloud computing architecture. I imagine that you have some blacklists that are overly sensitive, perhaps because of previous owners of our IP addresses.
At the moment, Rapportive is using two IP addresses, but that is very likely to change in the future. Does it work if you unblock 184.73.207.113 and 184.72.249.23?

Make Rapportive a 'hover over' object on selected pages or objects...
6 votesHi again :),
That’s an awesome idea! Did you have an idea for what kind of objects you’d most like to hover over?

Hi,
We’re definitely planning some kind of mobile Rapportive integration in the future. We’re not yet sure what it will look like, but it will almost certainly be integrated with your Gmail in some way :).

Default Twitter / Social Network Account for Feeds and Klout
Hey suggestion for Rapportive. Need to be able to Select which Twitter account gets Klout measurement and feed shown, Right now I have 3 twitter connected and I cant get it to show the proper account.
Only way to show the proper one now is to only have one.
3 votesHi Alex,
I’ve made geilt the primary one for now — we’ll definitely consider making it possible for you customise the order yourself though.

fix the system.
Please look into fixing rapportive,I love it but...
it's constantly showing me inaccurate/incorrect information. example johndoe@hotmail will show me janesmith's information... it does not match the person more often then it does... :*(
1 voteHi Mike,
We try quite hard to keep Rapportive reliable, though I’m happy to admit that it’s much less than perfect sometimes.
Would you be able to email some examples of wrong profiles to supportive@rapportive.com, it would be really useful to help us track down where we go wrong; and (as a temporary measure) we can fix the profiles manually.
Thank you!

Allow fetching of data from Freelance Networks
Many freelance networks send notifications about message board posts and only include their user id. If there could be a way of grouping these in the recent messages. Also if a contact adds a new freelance job, to display it in the feed. I know Freelancer.com has a pretty comprehensive API http://www.freelancer.com/info/api.php
3 votesHi Andy,
Thanks for getting in touch, and that’s a great idea.
We’ll keep this story updated as we make progress with it.

Hi,
I can see why this would be useful. While we probably don’t have time to develop this just yet, there is a great API for developing your own blocks (called Raplets) for Rapportive.
If you’re interested, you can find the documentation at http://code.rapportive.com — if you end up doing something with it before us, we’d love to see!

Hi Patrick,
We should show you all information that we have at the time. Is that not the case?
