Plaxo – Another Stay connected tool!

I bumped into Plaxo from one of the official mails I got. The mail I got had a rather big signature with the following line, “Add me to your address book… Want a signature like this?” and this was linked to Plaxo.

Plaxo is a service to stay connected with your contacts. If you update your info, all your friends address book also gets updated and vice versa. It can also automatically update outlook address book if outlook integration is enabled.

Following is the Plaxo feature list,

• Update your address book when friends change their contact info
• Update friends?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢ address books when your contact info changes
• Sync your contacts, calendar, tasks, notes across Plaxo-enabled applications
• Get reminded of a friend’s birthday just a few days before
• Receive a Plaxo alert whenever a contact?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢s info has changed

Plaxo integration with Outlook is pretty neat. Check out the following screenshots of outlook after integration and the useless but jazzy e-mail signature creator.

Plaxo offers a premium service also. The main attaction of the premium service is the ability to send e-cards.

But I am yet to find Plaxo attractive enough (eCards is cool, but only with premium) to sign up!
