Managing and Sharing an Address Book
Any address book, even Snow Leopard’s, can quickly become a confusing mess of unorganized data. Unlike paper address books, Snow Leopard’s can create a very organized system... if you know what to do. For example, you could create logical groups, and then use obvious naming conventions for each contact. You can name your groups by family, school, work, community service, kids sports teams just to name a few. Address Book has many features that helps you manage your groups and the contacts you create, and then share them with others. You can even use the vCard format to exchange contact information between various programs or set up synchronization and sharing with MobileMe, Google Contacts, or Yahoo Address Book (New!).
