I like to have certain contacts available all the time, thats why i use the plaxo solution. BUt i guess i should check out that plaxo outlook plugin, might come in very useful. It would be great if everyones contact information magically updated itself, no matter what application you were using!

Chris, from your statement it seems as if you stopped using Outlook and meticulously started typing in every single entry into the Plaxo website. Is my understanding incorrect? There actually is an Outlook plugin that you can download from their website (http://www.plaxo.com/downloads) that will link your outlook client to Plaxo so that you can 1) instantly upload all your contacts to their smart address book and 2) keep your Outlook program always up-to-date when other Plaxo members update their contact information.

In addition, if you happen to have a Mac, use Thunderbird, or have a cell phone, you can download the appropriate software to keep all of those devices in sync with this smart address book. Add a contact in one place and it’ll show up in all the others.

Hope that helps…

I highly recommend the pay version of Plaxo as well. Just the phone call to restore your Plaxo you get is worth it. It’s a huge time saver if you like to try out new third party beta-sync tools that can/will/may eat your Address Book.

My cell phone (a Sidekick II so it’s backed up on T-mobile’s site).

Sorry but I remember that words from Microsoft: Where do you want to go today? and now in the 2007 this is the new one.

For my lengthy list of clients I use ACT! for some and I just started a Zoho account and I’m extremely impressed with it up to now.
