Ever wanted to consolidate all of your address books and buddy lists in one place? The folks at Abbeynet are addressing that problem with Hictu!, an online address book and presence service. Import your contacts, invite them to join, and you have now got presence across multiple services, as well as click to call from Abbeynet’s own Sitofono, and Abbeyphone.
I’ve been playing with Hictu!, and while it’s still a beta, it promises to provide a whack of new functionality in the coming weeks, including a mobile client. More details from Abbeynet CEO Luca Fillighedu here.Â
Nice job, Luca!

A double-decade veteran of product management and marketing, he spent nine years at Microsoft where he helped launch Windows 95, the first two versions of Internet Explorer, the Universal Plug and Play initiative, the push into home markets, opt-in email marketing and what might well go down in history as the very first direct email list ever.

Hictu evolved so far.
It adds video microblog features to the presence address book.
