Cool idea - I have the same problem and once started tracking a "last contact date" in my OS X address book. Then I had an AppleScript that would go through and check that date and give me 3,6,9 month reminders.

I'd love something that would connect with Twitter and automatically identify when I say "we should meet up" with somebody and remind me to meet up. Because I nearly always forget when I say that, especially if the person is in another city.

Thanks! Love the idea of twitter integration. Auto-generation of tasks/reminders is in our feature backlog.

Thanks for the great validation that we're on the right track. The idea came up specifically because we had the pain ourselves. When I first ran the prototype on my own email, I was shocked at how long it had been since I'd touched base with a whole lot of people.

The Twitter idea is really interesting... Location-based reminders. Hmmm I'm going to ponder that some more. Thanks for the feedback!
