How To Get Your Business Cards Into Google Buzz

February 10th, 2010

Google BuzzYesterday Google announced the launch of Google Buzz. If you haven’t yet heard of the new service, check out an in-depth overview from Louis Gray. The basic idea of the Google Buzz service is to aggregate all of your “social” content together with other content from  your friends into one big river of social content. Google Buzz actually operates inside of Gmail and the service will rollout over the next few days. You will know you have access when you see a Buzz link on the left menu inside of your Gmail account.

The biggest key to using Google Buzz effectively is to make sure your contacts are inside of your Google account. And getting your business card contacts into your Google/Gmail account is super quick and easy when you use CloudContacts.

Once we scan and transcribe your business cards, you can select to send your contacts to Gmail which takes about one minute to do. From there you can “activate” your business card contacts in Google Buzz. What’s even better is that we can categorize your contacts inside CloudContacts and the categories will transfer as well into Gmail. This way you can decide who or which categories will get access to your Google Buzz stream.

So what will you Buzz about?
