If you’re like me, you use many different services for communication. From Outlook, to Gmail, to my iPhone, I have multiple ways to stay in touch. The problem? Until recently, I had my contacts spread out among those platforms, in no coherent fashion. I had no problem keeping my frequent contacts consistent among those platforms, but when it came time to find contact information for someone I hardly contacted, I’d find myself digging among all my platforms, not sure where I had saved that person’s information. Those problems ended when I discovered Soocial, a contact management service that will keep your contacts synchronized across multiple platforms. Soocial is actually quite simple, and consists of two main features – synchronization and backup. Read on for a discussion of each, and then let us know in the comments how you keep your contacts in sync.

A few weeks back, Google unveiled the long-awaited push Gmail for iPhone and Windows Mobile. Push Gmail is part of the Google Sync package, which is still in Beta and previously offered only Google Calendar sync and Google Contacts sync. The calendar and contacts features have been working fairly flawlessly for some time now, aside from the inability to support multiple calendars and a few hiccups with the sync connection on some phones. Gmail push, unfortunately, has proven to be somewhat imperfect.
