Mac 101: Address Book

Whether you've got all your contacts stored neatly in some electronic device or are still hanging on to your tattered address book, personal organizer, or business card collection, Address Book makes managing the important people in your life simple. Address Book keeps all your VIPs right at your fingertips. Address Book allows you to enter all sorts of information about a person, including his or her email addresses, phone numbers, addresses, websites, chat names, names of the important people in his or her life (including spouse, partner, mom, dad, siblings, and assistant), and more. And because it's a system-wide application, you can email, chat, or visit a contact's website directly from an Address Book card. You can even print address labels.
