Monday 26 December 2005 — This is almost 19 years old. Be careful.
Every year about this time, we get around to sending out holiday cards, and every year, I wonder the same thing: How come I don’t have a good solution to keeping all these addresses on file so I can just print up a bunch of labels? Every year I scrounge around for people’s addresses, and wonder who I sent cards to last year, and poke around at various possibilities for personal databases of mailing addresses. Surely this is a solved problem? It seems like I’ve got to have something right at my fingertips that’s perfect for this. I just don’t know what it is...

A quick microformat writer would be neat. I imagine it as a set of lightly constrained and simple editors that you could invoke to write to... something. Maybe just dump each one into a big directory on WebDAV, and expect other software to index it.
