It is reassuring to me to know that I have a friendly "backup" service for my address book. Yes, some of my "geek" friends don't trust Plaxo's invitations (sent out by me). But the majority of my friends do send me a response using Plaxo's services. Recently I was forced to change my comcast email alias, and Plaxo made it easy to send out an update to my friends. Not all of my contacts are Plaxo subscribers, and I like the features that allow "non-subscribers" to update my address book. Overall, I feel Plaxo is useful and convenient. I recommend it to my friends.
