Future-Proofing Contact Information
Future-Proofing Contact Information
01/26/2004 12:36 PMHow do you future-proof contact information? It strikes me that,
through the years, I migrate from one messaging platform to another,
but I'm generally contacting the same people. My Mom is going to be
my Mom no matter what email client I'm using. Probably true for my
wife, too.
So, when I switch from Outlook to Outlook Express to Mozilla Mail
to Thunderbird, I'm having to export and import all my contact
information every time, hope I don't lose anything in translation, and
hope that it stays constant even when subject to the quirks and
vagaries of each platform.
Should there be a XML schema for archiving contact information, so
that it's always the same? So I could just put people in this XML
file, then import to various platforms as I switched (or, if they
don't support the schema, do an XSL transform to something they
do support)? So this XML file would be the one, true source
for information about the people I know.
(Even taking out the XML angle, is it worthwhile to abstract your
contact information away from a particular client? Regardless of what
you store it in, is it just good practice to keep it in a
vendor-neutral, highly-exportable format rather than a proprietary
app?)
It concerns me that, as I wander through various software, I don't
have a "home base" for all my contact information; a format that my
mother's contact information can live in from here to eternity. Is
this the point where the mother of invention requires that I invent
the schema?

08/28/2004 10:27 PMI have a weird philosophy on the future: Don't wait for the inevitable
if it's something you want. Every time I hear someone say, "someday
we'll be able to..." or "in a few years, it won't be unusual to..." I
consider what they're suggesting will be commonplace. If it's
something I also believe is is inevitable and worthwhile, I try to
start doing it now rather than later. What's the point of waiting,
