Tech Failure

Aidan just asked me where Mark's house is for tonight and I couldn't extract the address out of my mail client (out of sync as I can only sync at work). I would have referred to my life but I had left that downstairs. It was only after I went looking I realised my phone also knew the answer as it has an almost sync-ed version of my Palm's database.

What I actually need is a master central repository which will stay in sync and not generate any weird duplications (when I add a new contact to my phone for example). Web access would probably be quite useful as well.

However I also want to find a copy of Boris Johnson's last appearance on Have I got News for You so playing with LDAP servers will have to wait.
