Recently I did a post on merging/deleting duplicate contacts in Windows Live Hotmail and now I am happy that even Gmail has incorporated this feature. So without much ado, here’s how you merge duplicate contacts in Gmail.
Merging duplicate contacts in Gmail:
1) In your Gmail account, click ‘Contacts’ in the left pane.
2) Now in the right pane, click the button that reads ‘Find duplicates’
3) It will take 15 seconds max (depends on your contact list) to detect dupes. When it finishes, it’ll display the duplicate contacts with the number of times they are duplicated. You can choose not to merge some contacts by unchecking them. Finally click ‘Merge’ button on top.
Merging duplicate contacts in Gmail was something that I really wished for. It’ll be like a dream come true for those who sync Gmail contacts with their smart phones frequently.
