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

I use notes to store unstructured data that I want to remember about a person. That they like Wasabi, that their Prius is red, that their child goes to such-and-such a school. I do this ALL THE TIME, so it's a natural place for Rapportive to store notes.
The Rapportive notes field is also a GREAT place to display those GMail notes.
So...I think it would be great if Rapportive used the underlying GMal database to store notes data, and displayed the same in the Rapportive pane.

Hi Adyita,
Thanks for getting in touch — it would be useful to have a “hide Rapportive” temporarily button in several cases!
Out of interest, how big are the small screens you are using?

Good idea, thanks! Right now we can’t find people on Skype automatically, but you can add a Skype link to your own profile: just click “add a social network” and then type skype:yourusername
Best, Martin

Could you suggest how you would like this to work? We don’t want to run the risk of being confusing – if we show our sidebar, which is basically a contact record, next to the existing Google contact record, it would look a bit weird, especially if the data we have isn’t the same as what you’ve got in your address book.
What would you find most useful to augment Google Contacts? Or is the main benefit that you’d be able to search directly for a contact (as Michelle describes) rather than having to first find an email from them?

We’ll definitely consider supporting Outlook if enough people want it. To that end, if you haven’t already, would you mind voting on this idea? We get a lot of feature requests (for which we’re very grateful!) and the votes help us to prioritise.

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 :)

I'm with John Milner, although I don't really see the value of it being an option. You should be using the GMail database - there is no reason to not (from the users perspective).
I do use the Rapportive notes, but only for later transposition to Google Notes. I have no expectation that they will be there when I need them. If I truly want that info to be persistent, it goes into GMail notes.
It's not that Rapportive notes aren't awesome - thay are - awesome and handy. It's simply that I want (better said, require) a unified database, or complexity gets things out of control and I won't abide that. I already have too much complexity.
