DUB Simplifies Contact Exchange With Single-Click Mobile Application

VIENNA, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--DubMeNow, creator of the first application for exchanging business card information using a mobile phone, today launched a new feature on the DUB application for instantly exchanging contact information with the push of a button.

The new feature called ‘Locate' allows BlackBerry and iPhone users to exchange contact information such as e-mail, phone, address, photo, etc. and links to their social networks, including: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, blogs and more using their location.

When two people meet, open the DUB application, and click the ‘Locate' button, DUB will find both users and prompt them to exchange contact information. The contact information is then automatically saved directly to their mobile address book.

"The ‘Locate' feature enables people to instantly exchange contact information during any in-person setting by simply pushing a button," said Manoj Ramnani, founder and CEO. "We're excited to be the first to connect both iPhone and BlackBerry users and will be adding other mobile phones soon."

Once the exchange has been made, the contact's info is always current. DUB automatically updates a user's mobile address book anytime a contact updates their information (new e-mail, phone, social network, etc.).

In addition to the new ‘Locate' feature, the newest version of DUB includes several other improvements:

  • Users can add a photo to their contact info, and include social networking information such as Twitter handles, Facebook, LinkedIn, Flickr accounts, blog URLs and much more.
  • Users can send a LinkedIn invitation along with their contact info.

DUB still offers the ability to e-mail or text your mobile business card from your phone or the Web to any e-mail address or mobile phone number.
