<p>Many of my favourites have already been named but I would like to add Facebook Graph Search into the mix. Quite an amazing way of filtering by gender, age, location, employer etc. For some reason I have BETA but it will be rolled out soon I hear. </p>

<p>Another Gmail addition is Yesware.com which shows when people open your email, where and even on what device. I am advised they are working on an Outlook integration but in the meantime you can look at <span>ToutApp and ContactMonkey for this. Using Yesware with Rapportive and Boomerang gives some interesting options ! </span></p>
<p><span>The email permutator that searches for all email combinations which you then put into Rapportive is here <a href="http://bit.ly/165c4Cb" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/165c4Cb</a> Click File then Make a copy to edit. </span></p>

<p><span>The best email tester I use is <a href="http://bit.ly/X4p4lK" target="_blank">http://bit.ly/X4p4lK</a> </span></p>

<p><span>And one just to make your life easier and put all of your social media contacts into one place is <a href="http://connectedhq.com" target="_blank">http://connectedhq.com</a> </span></p>

<p>If it's going to be international then maybe include Viadeo, Xing, Plaxo, Skillpages etc.</p>
<p>How about social tools like followerwonk, falcon.io etc.</p>
<p>It would be interesting to know how many people make use of LinkedIn Signal.</p>
<p>Definitely agree that Bullhorn Reach should be in there.</p>
<p>Look forward to seeing the results of this - great idea! </p>
