CardMunch from LinkedIn

LinkedIn is the social network for business professionals. It not only lets you showcase your skills but it has all the tools you need to expand your network. If you are a super-networker, chances are you have plenty of paper business cards at your disposal. Digitizing all those one by one could be a hassle unless you use an app such as CardMunch.

CardMunch by LinkedIn makes converting business cards to contacts on your phone a piece of cake. Just grab your business cards and use iPhone’s camera to capture their information. The app also adds people whose card you have scanned as connections on LinkedIn. I love the fact that CardMunch offers LinkedIn profile information, related connections, and other relevant information for each contact.

CardMunch does have an elegant user interface. The app keeps track of your scanned cards which is quite useful. It is quite accurate too, which seals the deal for us. Better sync functionality would be nice though. Still, if you are addicted to LinkedIn, CardMunch is worth playing with.
