Google has enabled Google Contacts as a standalone app for Gmail users at http://www.google.com/contacts |
Excellent find Martin! I surely will be using this. |
Its only missing the favicon for this URL (standalone version). |
Cool, the URL is far easier to remember than http://mail.google.com/mail/contacts/ui/ContactManager which has been available for long time.

I'll be expecting an offline version of it :] |

Matt Cutts just twittered about this: http://www.google.com/contacts
Useful if you store phone numbers or if you need information faster... |

I could've sworn I'd seen this posted somewhere else recently, otherwise I would have done so when I spotted it on Tuesday after noticing the "contacts" service had gone live.
Aha... here it was on GoogleWatchBlog.de:
http://www.googlewatchblog.de/2009/03/20/google-contacts-als-standalone-verfuegbar/ |
This was also just announced on the Google Apps update alert blog/feed.
But what I don't get is how this:

is any different to this:
