Agreed completely with most of your points - as I've already mentioned this is just the start and some of the things in the pipeline will easily surpass Google's relatively stagnant option.
However, I don't think Google does respect your privacy [1] [2]. That is a massive issue and is becoming greater over time and is something Add was created to directly counter.
Hopefully we can prove you wrong and still be here in 5 years - I want to build a sustainable and growing business, not a flash in the pan startup looking for a quick sale.

- testimoney 14y agoI do agree that there might be some privacy concerns over google, but for contacts I actually don't really care. Lets say I use your service instead of Google, I will protect my contacts from getting into Google's hands (this is only if I don't use gmail/google voice/google plus, which I do so they get my contacts anyways). Now I have protected my contacts, against google. But I have 173 friends/family that also use Gmail. This means that every single one of them probably has my email/phone/address and uploaded it too into Google Contacts. And if I haven't uploaded my contacts, someone else will do it. There is no way of protecting yourself against this sort of social network.
