Over the last few days I have been madly hacking away on a CiviCRM project for Try/on Life Farm (TLC) as thye race to raise the money to buy the land so they can keep the area as TLC and not McMansions.  As you likely have figured out my contribution to this project is managing their data so it can be used more efficiently in the stretch run.

Anyway back to CiviCRM, this is my first time working with a CRM so I don't have a strong point of reference but I have to say that it seems to do most of the things that I want to do as of yet.  I have been kicking around the idea of using the CiviCRM as my personal address book as I have never been happy with any of the electronic address books that I have worked with.
