By , About.com GuideNovember 22, 2011

Follow me on:

cardmunchHave you been to a job fair or a networking event and ended up with a stack of business cards that you're not quite sure what to do with? Now there's a quick and easy way to scan them with your iPhone and connect them to LinkedIn using CardMunch.

When you scan a  card, the information on it will be mapped to the person's LinkedIn profile, along with photos of contacts, common connections, past work experience, and education.

In addition, you'll be able to connect with the person on LinkedIn added them to your contacts on your iPhone, if you'd like.

You can download the free CardMunch app from the iTunes app store.

A friend of mine said he tried the ap on his iPhone and it would not convert the information. Have you tried it?

It worked for me. He might want to try again because this is a brand new version of the app.
