Ever want to grab an Outlook vCard of your Users in salesforce? Here's how.
(Note, if you search the AppExchange for "vCard" you can install this custom link for your Contacts and Leads page views, but it doesn't offer to put the custom link on your Users page layout).
Go to Setup>Customize>Users and select "Custom Links". From there, name your custom link, select "URL" in the Content Source box, and put this code into the http://www.arrowpointe.com/dev/vCardBuild/vCard.php?
LastName={!User.LastName}&FirstName={!User.FirstName}
&Company={!Account.Name}&Title={!User.Title}&Street=
{!User.Street}&City={!User.City}&State={!User.State}&Zip=
{!User.PostalCode}&Phone={!User.Phone}&Fax={!User.Fax}
&Mobile={!User.MobilePhone}&HomePhone={!User.Phone}
&Email={!User.Email}&Website={!Account.Website}{!User.City}
That's all there is to it.
Maniacal (but useful) ravings about salesforce.com, CRM, and Software as a Service (SaaS).

One thing I would caution against is using a third party to process your company/contact data. I'm not saying that the company who hosts the URL in your post is doing anything bad with the data, but perhaps it may be best to write your own script so you know that the third party isn't storing the data in their own database. Just something to think about.
I agree w/number 1... just be cautious
