Address book, ipod touch and groups

I've just acquired an iPod touch and I'm in love.

One small issue, though. I've added a bundle of addresses in the past few weeks using the touch, but only yesterday did I realise that they could be placed in groups if you were IN the group already when you started adding the new entry. So there's a whole load of ungrouped entries in my (frighteningly big) address book.

The logical thing would be to make a smart group for stuff that, say, isn't in a dumb group. But I couldn't see a smart group option for that. Any bright ideas?

pj WolfSheep

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
