Plaxo is part social media tool, part address book. It’s a useful way of keeping contacts names and addresses up-to-date. Useful, but in my opinion not as elegant or as handy as alternatives such as Linkedin. The company and its product have a chequered history. In the earlier days Plaxo messages would turn up in my [...]
