Show HN: PossibleEmail – Ruby gem to find someone's email address
- joshmlewis 12y agoDoes this still work since the Rapportive plugin was shut down a couple weeks ago? Edit: why the downvotes? The Rapportive plugin was shut down and this gem uses it.
- the4dpatrick 12y agoYup it still works. I just tested it as a sanity check.
- joshmlewis 12y agoAwesome. I was in the process of that.
- jwcrux 12y agoThis is very close to the Python Rapportive API library I have out on github: http://github.com/jordan-wright/rapportive http://github.com/jordan-wright/rapportive.
- eli 12y agoDoes it still work? I'd be surprised if they shut down the official plugin but kept the API running for the benefit of unlicensed clients.
- the4dpatrick 12y agoYes still working
- the4dpatrick 12y agoHey Jordan, ye last time we talked I mentioned how your script was a big inspiration but my rapportive projects. Glad you saw this one as well.
- jsfour 12y agoLove the concept! I will be using this for sure.
- hkmurakami 12y agoThis is not the first post I've seen about this sort of email mining, and certainly see its value (though I've seen some pretty distasteful "look and my business hack! blogposts in the past of the subject). I wonder at what point this will become so rampant that some sort of pushback happens. If there is pushback, I wonder in what form it will happen and what recourse people have. Regardless, thanks for sharing!
- johnz133 12y agoIt looks like you're missing the middle initial, which a lot of businesses use and also easy to permutate through only 26 letters.
