A screenshot from the new build has been floating around featuring an updated version of the Address Book application with one big addition. A “social networking” menu is added showing both Twitter and Facebook icons. This could mean that Apple will allow you to keep (and possibly edit) your contacts pulled from social networks.
There’s no word yet if the screenshot is credible or not, but it does look pretty convincing and would make sense given recent news that Apple is likely to incorporate social media into other applications such as iTunes.

This is really cool, I think so anyway. Address book does Google Maps! If you have a contact with a street address within, you can ctrl-click (right click) to bring up a menu with “Map Of” as an item. Choose “Map Of” and watch the location appear in Google Maps!

While the new data mining in Leopard is very very cool, many have overlooked a feature that I have been using for ages. “Add to Address Book” has been a very handy feature that has been improved in Leopard. It used to be that if you used this feature it would happen in the background and if you wanted to add any further details you had to open Address Book and search for your contact to add more details. Now this is the very first thing that Leopard does for you when you choose ‘Add to Address Book’. The birthday field has also been improved. It is the little things in Leopard that make it so great.
