Little Black Book

What do you give the person who has everything? We all have a few friends like that – they either like their lives simple and their posessions few, or they’ve already bought every toy they can buy. And really, there are only so many novelty gifts that you can throw at a member of the young and mobile digital set.

You’re going to want to a find a gift that fits their lifestyle. You’re looking for something portable, preferably digital, that can help keep a hyper-social,  multi-tasking life in order (or keep the said hyper-social multi-tasker sane). Hmmm, sounds familiar… Little Black Book to the rescue! Ok, ok, so it’s easy to find any number of iPhone or computer apps that fit that bill. Why the LBB?

1. Privacy is precious in a world in which even your most personal conversations can become public. The Little Black Book’s PIN lock, intimate photo gallery and totally anonymous relationship advice give the modern socialite the tools to keep their private life discreet.
2. So many people, so little time to remember their names… much less their favorite movie or where they like to eat. Since effective networking is the key to success in the business world and the bedroom, you just can’t afford to forget. The Little Black Book let’s you take note of all kinds of useful details alongside names and numbers. Give your hyper-social friend the gift of a photographic memory that fits in their pocket.
3. It’s becoming more and more popular to do more with less, to be sustainable, and to go green. What better fits that description than a piece of software (no waste!) that makes a handy gadget you already have even handier? Also, by entering all those important little details into your Little Black Book, you not only keep them private, you save paper.
4. Saltlick Labs is constantly working to improve the applications they have on the market. Which means that the Little Black Book will keep getting better and better, at no cost to you or the friends you give it to.  How can you beat that?
