As I mentioned in a previous post, new avenues of communication complement, not replace, older methods of communication. There are a ton of ways to get in touch with me. How do you choose which one to contact for each person?

My idea? Create a system where you can sign up for a special e-mail address that connects to all your different social media accounts. Any e-mail to that address will get forwarded on to Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, GTalk, AIM, etc.

You could set rules for what e-mails get sent to what address when.

And it could handle replies.

Open it up so anyone can build their own connector via your API. yay platforms!

So who’s going to make it?
