So I've been wanting to create some form of database of my friends, contacts, clan members, ect. I want something where I can just create profiles and add people's information (such as AIM, yahoo, steam IDs, facebook, email addresses, ect). It doesn't have to talk to social networks I just want something to help me keep track of who is who when I get messages from people on steam that isn't a sticky note on my monitor. Am I better off making a spreadsheet so I can put custom entries into each profile or is there a bit of software that can be used via mobile, web, and desktop?

you have 2 options, create a website in PHP, HTML, MYSQL or maybe use the google spread sheet thing

Check out my current projects: Selling site (Click Here)

If($reply == "for me to see"){

   $action = "Quote me!";

}else{

   $action = "Leave me alone!";

}

I rather not do such things as I barely have any skill in those, lol. I was hoping if anyone could suggest a program like these http://www.tomsguide.com/us/pictures-story/609-best-contact-apps.html anyone know if they allow for custom fields, Web interface, desktop client and mobile.

Google / Microsoft / Apple stored? AFAIK they offer custom fields and all that. Not sure about desktop interface though, but I'm fairly sure they all have web and mobile for their own respective platforms (and possibly more). I am fairly sure Microsoft has a desktop client though.

If desktop only (portable too) is ok, Free Address Book is one that I got. Don't really keep it up to date since I have most sfutt on Google Contacts. Here's link http://addressbook.gassoftwares.com/
