Hey there Plaxo users!

We've been hinting for months now about an all-new and improved version of Plaxo Online (called "Plaxo 3.0"...very creative, huh?). And, we are almost ready to go prime-time, but first we need help testing it on our most daring, helpful, and dedicated users (before unleashing it on everyone else).

So, if you are a passionate user of Plaxo and an "early adopter" of new technology, you can volunteer for the private beta. The first 1,000 people who send an empty e-mail to privatebeta@plaxo.com will be given instructions on how to get started in a couple of weeks.

[Note: we will not read or reply to the emails sent to privatebeta@plaxo.com.]

What’s included?

  • A completely new version of Plaxo Online
  • Localized for various languages
  • Expanded list of "sync points" (including Google, Yahoo!, and Hotmail)
  • An innovative new online calendar
  • A few other surprises

Hope to see you in the beta,
-Rikk (and the Plaxo Team)

P.S. In case you don't know, "Plaxo Online" is what you get when you log in to www.plaxo.com and use your Plaxo account (as opposed to accessing Plaxo via Outlook or Outlook Express).


Teamwork pays off!

Teamwork pays off!
Join us in testing Plaxo 3.0!

Any indication on when the beta testing is going live? I can't wait! I've been deserately waiting for a way to sync my work calendar (Outlook) with my Google Calendar and iCal on my Mac for ages now and this seems to be the way forward... my work computer is locked down, but Plaxo still seems to find a way around this to get itself installed and running.

This post is for Pete Curley.

Curley is a rare last name. I'm curious as to where you grew up. My clan was originally from Philadelphia but they're all over the place now, so you never know if there's a connection.

Anyway, I wrote a review of Scoble's Naked Conversation awhile back and keep up on Web 2.0 through his blog Scobolizer, which is where I read about Plaxo, which I intend to download.

Here is a link to the blog noted above and another to the Blue Ocean Institute.(I saw the reference to Shamu and thought you might enjoy the sentiment.)

And who knows, this could be an ancestor of yours:
