I have the impression from your site that Contactually uses email as a principal interface for the service - I expect I'll find out more as you've intrigued me enough to sign up and try it out. I started out on the Comms project because most people I know find email a chore, and it seems like everyone is challenged to find their own solution to basically the same set of problems. My worry taking on a new service that uses mail as the user interface is that for many people, the whole problem with mail is the user interface. Did you consider doing it as (say) a Gmail plugin, rather than a service that mails the user?
