Hi! Arg, I lost my cell phone in Seattle and now have no idea how to reach people. Does anyone know of a program or online application that allows you to send an email invite out for people to reenter their info into a spreadsheet or something? This is annoying. I would really appreciate the help! Thanks....

I keep a hard copy of all my numbers. Do that next time.
A friend of mine had his phone stolen or loast and made a Facebook groups called something like "give me your digits" or something where people all joined the group and gave him thier numbers including many cute girls.
I am sure one of your friends you see regularly has many other of your friend's numbers. Look at your friend's contacts lists.
My number is 806-6559 to add to your new list :lol:

Don't know what service you use, but Verizon has a feature that you can store all your stuff in an online account with them, so that if you lose your info or change phones, you can download all the info into your new phone automatically. Won't help in this case, but may be of future use.
Of course, it helps to update it periodically (note to self).
I think mass email will likely be your best option. will probably have to enter numbers in by hand again.

I've seen people do this via Facebook as well, so I guess it's one technique.
I'd probably just send out a mass email to friends asking for numbers. Is there any specific reason you need them in a spreadsheet format?
If you want to save a little bit of time and not have to punch in names and numbers, tell your friends to call you so that you can save their numbers into your phone and only have to type in their names.
Good luck!

It's also a good way to purge your phone of those numbers you never actually call. So consider this situation as an efficiency down-sizing.

Verizon's website allows me to see records for the last 6 months of all of the calls I made and received. You could go through the logs and get all of the numbers. I don't know if other providers allow you too see this info.

Alltel puts them all on my bill each month.
