I keep a majority of my information on Google and I'm in the process of moving most of my Word, Powerpoint and Excel documents to Google Apps. That way I will not be limited by the OS or computer that I am using. I will be able to create, edit or share documents with anyone that has an email address. I believe that you can disable the feature that automatically creates contacts from people that you email. This would resolve that issue.Kinohttp://www.thinksmartsolutions.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-5738794672779005232008-11-24T12:52:00.000-08:002008-11-24T12:52:00.000-08:00I've actually set up a google account that I don't...I've actually set up a google account that I don't use email.

If you receive a mail from jknorimichi@nippon.org it will not get added to your contacts, however once you reply to that mail or just send a mail to jknorimichi@nippon.org THEN it gets added to your contacts. They make the assumption that since you are continuing or starting the communication that you know who this person is.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04483546425931375712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-52153880051731217442008-03-06T05:31:00.000-08:002008-03-06T05:31:00.000-08:00I really hope Google does release a full fledged c...I really hope Google does release a full fledged contact management system.

I have tried many such programs, both freeware (OggSync, Calgoo) and commercial (CompanionLink) and they worked so-so, apparently pretty good but when something untypical happened their reliability was zero. I also use a HTC Tornado smartphone and sometimes syncing via BlueTooth witha new database record was synonymous to deletion all old calendar events, esp. if you use a non-English version of Outlook (at least one program above considers it database conflict).<BR/><BR/>The Google proggie works OK.<BR/><BR/>And I am waiting for something similar for my Outlook address book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-65309706651718047312008-03-06T03:49:00.000-08:002008-03-06T03:49:00.000-08:00I personally don't use any web client (I prefere t...I personally don't use any web client (I prefere to leave the things on the cloud ^^), but what concerns me is the issue of Gmail acting like: "Hey buddy, you recieved an email from jknorimichi@nippon.org!

I can't remember the details but it has worked for me.<BR/><BR/>On the Address book, I think mail vendors started auto-adding people you send messages to to your address book in conjunction with their spam filters which would often make exceptions for address book members. Google doesn't do this so, it's always puzzled me why they do the auto-add. At the same time you can't just click on an e-mail address embedded in a message you received in order to add them, which seems like a very natural thing to be able to do.<BR/><BR/>Google's design philosophy often favors the esoteric over the obvious.macbeachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16570427618324025947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-37162043871344259782008-03-05T20:35:00.000-08:002008-03-05T20:35:00.000-08:00Now only if they'd get a sync client out for OS X'...Now only if they'd get a sync client out for OS X's address book... and an iCal one while they're at it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-38711490350427787292008-03-05T20:19:00.000-08:002008-03-05T20:19:00.000-08:00Useful featureUseful featureScabrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10999467778061442007noreply@blogger.com
