Get your message out quicker!

As any active member of the platform can attest, the messaging feature is one of the most popular and most used on XING. And although always easy to use, it has not always been easy to find a contact quickly, particularly for networkers who are very active and successful: they have had to scroll through their contact list to find the desired recipient. This scrolling is a thing of the past: with the new contact chooser, released today, you can find the right recipient in a flash, no matter how many contacts you have. You just need to type a single letter (minimum) – and the system will show you which of your contacts match. Just start typing your contact’s name, and you’ll see a list of those who match the letter(s). Keep typing, and your results will narrow down. The intelligent matching feature means even if you type the name wrong, the system will suggest similar names – great for those who are better with numbers than with spelling.
