LinkedIn now has a solution for how to get all those business cards into a digital format

The solution is CardMunch.com.  LinkedIn recently acquired CardMunch.  According to Fill the Funnel:

So what did they acquire? Simply put, CardMunch scans a business card, sends it off to be converted into a digital format and then comes back to you with 100% accuracy, placed in your contacts database.  With the release of version 2.0, you can also now send off an invite to connect on LinkedIn from within the app.  No muss, no fuss.

Take a look at this video to see how it works and note the integration with LinkedIn.

 

Now, check out how easy it is to e-mail your contacts.
