    Contactify is a new service to create a simple “Contact Me” form that let’s people send you emails without knowing your email address.

It works well, but it would be nice if they widgetized this to allow people to add it to their MySpace page or blog without sending people off to the Contactify website. There also appears to be no way to turn the form off, so once people know the URL it’s almost as good as having your email address.
