    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!

    Hi Martin,

    Thanks for your reply.

    When I submitted that comment, I HAD just added the contact - but unfortunately, after more than a week, it's still not showing (for the contact I did the screenshot for).

    The odd thing is, I've added a photo to another contact since then, and it's already showing :S

    Also, I think it would be MUCH better if there was the ability to override any photo found on a social network with one we specify in Google Contacts, i.e. avoid this:

    http://www.flickr.com/photos/hughdickson/6964263707/sizes/l/in/photostream/

    I would prefer to show the photo that's on the left of that screenshot (the one I added to Google Contacts), on the right (in the Rapportive sidebar).

    Hugh Dickson supported this idea  ·
