Hi Franck,
That’s a pretty nice idea :). Do you have strong ideas about what information should be extracted?

We are definitely going to let you edit your contact records for other people. Right now, we’re working on giving you as much context as we can about your contacts without making you do the work of filling in their details, but we know that’s not enough on its own.
When we enable editing other people’s profiles, the edits will be private to you: in other words, if you edit someone’s profile, we’ll show you the edited version, but other people won’t see your edits. That’s because your contact data belongs to you, and we won’t share it without your consent; it’s also to protect the privacy of people who might not want their social network profiles being revealed in public.
If you have any ideas on how you would like this to work, please do let us know in the comments!

We’ve made some progress on this: once you’ve connected your Google Contacts to Rapportive (http://blog.rapportive.com/address-book-inbox-together-at-last), then if you have several email addresses for a contact, we’ll recognise that the different email addresses are the same person, and show the same profile for all of them. This means you can “link” two profiles together by creating a contact in Google Contacts with both of the email addresses – however please note we could take up to a day to notice the change.
If we determine from your Google Contacts that two email addresses are the same person, that will be private to you – i.e. you’ll see the same information for that person from then on, but other people will still see them as separate. That’s because people often want to keep their personal and professional identities separate in public.
We know there are times when you want to…

Hi Nick,
Thanks for getting in touch! This is a great idea — particularly aggregating events from multiple places :).
I’ll keep this story up to date as we think about it more.

Hi Vlad,
We’d love to support this too, though I can’t yet give an estimate as to when we might be able to.
Thanks for the reminder,

Hi, thanks for this suggestion. We’re working on getting a summary of the website associated with your contact’s email address, and hope we’ll have it working soon.
Best, Martin

Hi Joe,
Thanks for adding this :). For the record, what do you use the notes in Google Contacts for?

This is a great idea, thanks! We do plan to make more use of information that is already available on various sites, to the extent that we are allowed to use it.

Hi James, this is an interesting idea. In these cases, how are people giving your their email address? Is it on a business card, or over the phone, or some other way?

Hi Chris,
This is definitely something we’ll look into supporting — we just have to wait for Google to release an API :).

We already show recent tweets: just click on the Twitter link in the sidebar and it’ll expand to show their most recent tweets. (I find this pretty useful!)
We’re working on doing similar things for Facebook, LinkedIn and other networks too. We’ll probably need to ask you to log into each of those networks before we could display information from them, and it will probably only work for people you were already friends with. We’ve got some ideas on how to make integration with social networks really useful.
I’ll update here when there’s more news on this.

Hey folks, we’re nearly done on this. When we’re ready, we’ll release a small beta test to everybody who’s voted on the idea. Thank you for waiting :)
