Hey Abu and Adrian, Plaxo has an open API that can be used to create sync endpoints with. You could create a plug-in to OOO that syncs with Plaxo and then you can use all the other Plaxo sync endpoints (Microsoft Outlook, OS X Address Book, Yahoo!, Thunderbird, etc.). More info is available here: http://www.plaxo.com/api And here are the sync endpoints Plaxo supports: http://www.plaxo.com/downloads Thanks!
