This morning i have received an email from Craig who has suggested a very simple solution to enable proxy in GO Contact Sync. The trick is to created a config file GOContactSync.exe.config in installation directory and put this content in:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<configuration>
<system.net>

Hi,
I've released GO Contact Sync v1.0.0.3 where expiration date is removed. So it will work without any limits.

As you may have already heard, Google has released their own browser - Google Chrome. It's a beta at this stage, but what's there now is quite impressive: the main thing that cought my attention is the way they're handing JavaScript. Essentially they are compiling JavaScript into machine code, which yeilds a much faster performace.
So, i've run some javascript tests and was amaised by the results: Chrome performed about 30 times faster than IE and almost 2 times faster than Firefox 3!

An update on the development progress of Google Contacts Sync. It's taking longer than anticipated, partly because i've got lot's of other projects on hand at the moment and partly because i'm adding support for contact categories ("groups" in Google terms) and for pictures. It's almost there and beta will (hopefully) be available early August.

Inspired by Google Calendar Sync i have started developing a tool for syncronizing Outlook Contacts with Google Contacts. A beta version is on it's way by the end of June i hope. Let me know if you're interested in getting a copy of the beta (or the RTM) when it's released - i'll send you a notification.
