20140032612 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTEXTUAL CONTACT MANAGEMENT - The present disclosure relates to a system and method for contextual contact management, in which new contacts are stored in a contact list and are organized automatically by context. In an illustrative embodiment, as soon as a business card is collected at a networking opportunity or event, the business card is electronically stored in a mobile device for wireless transmission to a contact information processing service. In an illustrative embodiment, the business card is photographed and a digital image of the card is uploaded to a contact information processing service. Preferably, the business card information is sent together with context information identifying the context in which the contact was made. This context information is stored together with the new contact information such that a user can recall exactly when and where the contact was made, and why the contact may be important. | 01-30-2014 |
