On Android, it will show both sets of information. So if I have someone's phone number already, and it's in their Facebook too, it will be in their Contacts twice.
My whole life, I've never loved anything else.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
And I read the other day that Virgin Mobile accounts are pretty easy to hack.
ooh, another good reason to leave Virgin.

Yeah Jon, a great reason not to trust it. I do not want my contact list uploaded into facebook, and vice versa. I work with some celebs. I do not want them in the Facebook data mine, if at all possible.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Anyone using Springpad? Especially if you've tried Evernote, and are using it instead of or as well as?
I swear I was, but I go back and look at my usage, and I add or edit something in Evernote every week, if not every day. It's been months since I fired up Springpad, and I can't remember what my rationale was. I'm hovering over the Uninstall button, but I'm looking for use cases first--it's clearly not unpopular.

This is me. I signed up for it and it seemed potentially very useful, but I never find myself actually going there.

I have very specific uses for Springpad:
I use it for recipes because I like its recipe layout better than Evernote. But Evernote has a really awesome receipt/shopping plugin that make it much more useful to me.
But mainly I use Springpad for movies, books that are upcoming that I want to see. It notifies me when such things show up in theaters or bookstores or on DVD.

Okay, that last thing sounds great--how does that work? I am trying to find some sort of ebay shopping alert for the whole web/world. That looks like one part of it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
for example, go to imdb page for upcoming movie. bookmark it in springpad (I have a movies notebook and a book notebook).
it should auto read the data and set up an alert.

Okay, I springed The Hobbit. What's gonna happen????
I guess I should have picked one I know less explicit info about, huh? But this sounds fab.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
so I just did it for Looper (pick a more recent movie to see what I mean).
It comes out next week, and I get rotten tomatoes rating and in the "alerts" section of Springpad, I get notifications when books change price, I got a notification when JGL showed up on Letterman (right?), when movies I have bookmarked show up on Netflix instant.
