Avakit is a cool new way to keep in touch, maybe soon to replace traditional business cards.
Why it’s relevant ——————— The nature of ‘contact information’ is evolving fast, specially since people started using the Internet to communicate: A business card that used to simply have one phone number and one fax number should now ideally include a couple of email addresses, some online messenger ID’s, some social application ID’s…
Second, people change their contact info much more often that they used to, and an ideal contact card today should be dynamic, showing a person’s most updated info at any given time.
Finally, with all these new contact details, a person might also want to give different information to different people: their work phone only to clients, their personal email only to their grandmother, their online ID’s to their friends.
Avakit is a revolutionary way to do all these things, which might eventually replace the traditional business card concept.
Here’s how it works ————————- Avakit uses one contact detail as a lead to other contact details. This means that people trying to find you need to first insert a contact detail they already know about you. According to what they insert, you decide what info they will get. For example, a user can decide that old friends who know their old phone number will be allowed to find their current mobile number; while people who know their email will get their online ID’s…
Avakit is a free web-based service.
