So, finally the wait is over and Gmail has rolled out the new redesigned contacts from today itself. If you have not noticed yet, then its time to login and explore the new things out there for you in your favorite Email service.
Well, we were already hearing about the same from quite some time that Gmail is about to roll out a new redesigned Gmail for us, specially contacts and tasks. It was even pointed that contacts might get a call button though Google Voice is not rolled out for whole world as of now, so it was something not to be expected. 
The very first thing to notice was the placement of contacts. Just below the Gmail logo now, along with the Tasks icon as well. The contacts sure gonna get more attentions and tasks too. There blog post discusses much more about it in details here.
The other place to look for, was the detailed view of any contact that was also redesigned in a very effective and detailed way as given below:
Even there help page also has been updated to provide info about the new smoother ways with Gmail contacts now.
So, if you have not checked it out yet then go and take a look. Its always pleasant, when your one of the favorites get updated. 🙂
