Contact Management

Saturday, April 21st, 2007 at 12:17 am

Friends: I need a good way to keep track of my contacts - phone numbers, addresses, web sites, things like that. I’m not too fond of Address Book or Outlook, and really, I’d prefer something web-based so I can get to it anywhere. I considered buying a cheap Palm (or equivalent), but don’t really want to spend money, or carry another device, or have a single fail-point.

Anyone know a site that’s free, reliable, and won’t sell my friends to spammers?

    I use Plaxo… Sync clients available for OSX, Thunderbird, which is all I use… They also have a web client and a WAP client

    If you just want a place to dump information, OneNote is pretty good. It’s not a server thing, but you can access it from anywhere using onenote:// and you never have to save, it automatically persists everything you type in it. (posted on LiveJournal)

    I’ve heard nothing but good things about Plaxo’s confidentiality and reliability from my sales guys that use it.
