Good catch, Adam. Ironic that the first organized VRM meeting (that I can remember anyway - it was at Google's offices before an IIW about 4 years ago), the one use case everyone agreed to focus on was...change-of-address.

It's a much harder problem than it looks, and I agree that Updater.com is taking a good solid approach to it. My only complaint is that you have to go as far as the FAQ to find out what their business model is. They charge a whopping $5 a year (for a minimum of 3 years) for their Address Privacy service.

Hell, if they can do everything they say they can for $14.99 for three years, it's the bargain of the century. I'd put that right up front in large print on my home page.

Check it out!  Nice site and concept...very VRM...except they don't have a real connection with 3rd parties, they just send letters on your behalf.


I was thinking about doing something like this...

Great step in the right direction...anyone know them?  They should come to IIW!

Good video too.
