In our continuing series on the new Plaxo Alerts:

One of the improvements we've made to alerts is to visually separate them into 3 categories. This should help you recognize and handle alerts more quickly.

Green - "New Connection Alerts" - A contact in your address book has granted you permision to connect to their Plaxo card. The connected entry in your address book will be automatically updated each time the other Plaxo member changes their Plaxo card information. The "Green" alert also allows you to easily send and share your own Plaxo card information with the other Plaxo member.

Blue - "New Contact Info Alerts" - An entry in your address book has been updated. This occurs when someone responds to an Update Request you've sent, or when a connected Plaxo member in your address book updates their own Plaxo card information. The "Blue" alert will show you what information was changed.

Orange - "System Alerts/Important Messages" - Plaxo was unable to process a set of your instructions due to a problem. For example, an Update Request may have bounced or been throttled, or we may have failed to validate one of your email addresses. The "Orange" alert provide you the details of the problem and steps you can take to fix it.

We'll continue to tweak and improve the alerts over time, but if you have any questions, comments or feedback, please let us know.
