Full Contact for Gmail is the New Alternative for LinkedIn’s Rapportive

Rapportive is an excellent contact plugin for Gmail, which will display a small bio and social links of the sender of the email. It was very useful at first, but after LinkedIn’s acquisition, the app has been completely revamped to display only the LinkedIn profile details of the user. To some extent, the LinkedIn profile information will be useful, but other information and different social profile details would help us to know more about the person or the company. Full Contact for Gmail comes in handy with all those features and helps you build an excellent social profile for your email contacts. Here’s how it works.

As shown in the screenshot above, all the information will be displayed in a sidebar. Following the company or sender’s bio, the location of the sender and their social profile links will be displayed. If you’ve received an email from a company, their address and a short introduction will be available in that window. Google Hangouts will be available at the bottom of Window, which lets you start Hangouts with your contacts right from the application.
