Soooo every contact I add gets a list of terms added to their 'Job Title'. Its too far off the screen to read but it sorts. * Everything gets a city tag * I list the product that the person supports * everything else I can think of...

As far as I can see this is a calendering system, and I'm looking for a system for my contact information. Name, address, city, phone, e-mail etc. And I would like to add tags, and preferably crosslinks between people that know eachother. @Jennifer: Gmail surprised me as far as contact information goes. I never really took a good look at it. It doesn't really satisfy my needs, but it's worth to check it out some more. @Stefano: I don’t have iCal and if I’m not mistaken, it’s only available for the Mac right?
