Email is less sexy but free. XMPP support gets you quick/dirty Slack and Hipchat integration. Something like a Hubot extension could be a fun way to interact as well. Or Alexa/Home! Or IFTTT. Ok then, maybe just an open API?

It's too bad all of the metadata around a contact can't be kept with the contact in a portable way, and then Monica could just be an API for pointing at CardDAV and other contact servers, and a UI for interacting with them in unique ways. Personal clouds, etc.

I've thought about CardDAV of course, but it was too complex for a basic v1 like what I posted today.

I think Monica could be just an open API. The API is definitely something I'll work on in the next weeks, because of its potential.
