Would you send me this as vcf please?

I got an email the other day from a big company who is about information, search and retrieve because i met one of their representatives at DLD. Nicely the assistent wrote down (half) of the contact data - and I asked back for a vcf file for my adress book.

To my surprise I did get a no as an answer. I am sorry - but if you are an assistent of somebody, especially when you work at Google, I *do* expect of you to send me a .vcf of your contact data. And if you would have to do it by hand! *grrr*

Does anybody know which internal mail programm they are using? Outlook has this as a default function. But then again, you would have to understand why you always should have a contact entry of yourself available - something many people don't get either ...

"Beam me your card through your PDA would you?" "do what??".

Which reminds me, that I have to learn how to bluetooth that from my mobile phone.

About

female. european. geek.

About Nicole Simon I love working with people and help them get successful, especially through the use of social software. Though I have been on the net for over a decade and have consulted SMB for years, I also understand the corporate side, as I have worked in a major corporation for 15 years.

If you need a name for what I do, I usually call myself a European New Media Specialist with a special interest in (micro) blogging, podcasting and second life. I also love to 'testdrive' products / concepts which is best described as Technology Implementation Analyst. Recently I have finished the German Twitter book and will specialize a bit in 2009 on this topic as well as building more bridges between communities.

You can read more about me on my Xing profile or contact me for more information.

When I do interviews (mainly pre conference podcasts I put them up here: Bloxpert so I can seperate blog / podcast talk a bit more from the stuff here.

Useful Sounds is my personal podcast, and I also have a German blog. Living in Lübeck, Germany, a European point of view comes with everything.



Why ctbk? Smooth-tongued responses are for the timid ones, and if there are no challenges, there is nothing to gain either. :)
