Useful Firefox add-on for prospect researchers
Howard Lake | 27 November 2007 | Blogs
Tools that can speed up the online research process for fundraisers are valuable. Who Is This Person? is a free add-on for the Firefox web browser which could therefore prove a useful addition for prospect researchers.
Created by Ted Rheingold, it enables users to highlight any name on a web page and see matching information from Wink, LinkedIn, Wikipedia, Facebook, Google News, Technorati, Yahoo Person Search, Spock, WikiYou, ZoomInfo, IMDB, MySpace and more sites.
Any thoughts on how useful it is? Or is there a better similar tool?
