I really love the idea of this but it seems incredibly arduous to keep it updated. Everytime I do something, call someone, have a conversation, learn something new, have lunch, etc - it all has to be tracked.
I suppose this is the price to be paid if one wants to track all of those things, but much like many other CRMs there are integration points that could make this far less work for the consumer.

Our founding team is composed of serial entrepreneurs with prior successful startup exits as well as "recovering" attorneys who appreciate the pain points of attorneys as well as their business clients. Our seed and angel investors have backed some of the most promising startups of our time.

Incredible app and super fast pairing, feels nearly instant. I hope to see this technology in more of their apps. I think the possibilities are huge with a ton of potential in other apps.
This is actually really great. One of the things I hated so far about Rackspace Cloud was that I couldn't scale the resources independently. If I need to upgrade to multiple CPU's or more RAM I don't want to be required to double or triple my disk capacity - that's a giant waste, especially with the availability of Cloud Files.
Now if their Database hosting would include Mongo, I'm sold!
