Ask HN: Need alternative to Etacts

3 points by misham ↗ HN
With Etacts transitioning to Salesforce.com, what is a good alternative service?

I have tried using Salesforce and it's too heavy-weight for me. Highrise is ok, but I can't tie my Google Apps account with it.

I need something that ties in with my Google Apps account with optional dashboard (a la Etacts).

Thanks

What about http://gist.com/?

Gist is ok, but their dashboard is useless to me. I already can see my calendar and twitter feed through my regular work-flow. I need to be able to see contact information, whom I contacted recently and whom I need to contact. Gist is ok for social aggregator of my network, that's about it.

I'm giving BatchBook a try right now, see how that works out.
