   It's also great for figuring out someone's email address. Open up a new draft and start typing iterations (e.g., first.last@domain.com, first@domain, etc.). You'll know you've reached the right email when a profile pops up.

   There was a great discussion about hashing strategies as an alternative to storing all of this contact info. Did any specific code/examples follow? It'd be great to see a new "best practice" emerge from this discovery. If it's easy to use

    Well, to be fair, I've been dealing with a fubar'd system since Monday that is all Apple -- macbook air, time capsule for backup, full disk encryption w/ Lion. Apparently there's a huge bug that prevents the PGP key from properly mounting
