    Organizing Addresses, Mailing Lists and PIM is Frustrating

    I can't believe how there aren't any decent solutions to help organize
    addresses and contact information. There should be an easier way to
    enter (automatic recognition), organize (tags) and retrieve
    information.

    There are a few services that offer solutions but either inadequate or
    only provide partial solutions:
    http://www.plaxo.com, https://www.airset.com, http://www.grandcentral.com,
    http://www.zyb.com, ....

    I'm curious if other people feel the same way and if there is any
    potential to do something about it.

    There are lots of contact management systems out there. Just most are
    not web based. But that's not what these sites are all about. These
    are community portals, which is something entirely different.

      Hi Jerry,

      exactly. funny that all of them are community and sharing related.
      what about organizing and keeping information private? dont you think
      that thats an opportunity? that something like that might be in demand?

        Sure, that's why the contact management packages ACT, Gold Mine and the
        rest are so popular with businesses.

            Try asking in a more appropriate newsgroup. This one is for PHP
            programming.
