With the pre-designed, ready-to-use templates in Bento 3 you can do even more than you imagined: Organize contacts, clubs and mailing lists; track projects, tasks, and deadlines; plan special events; link photos to projects and events; and more. You can even sync with Bento for iPhone and iPod touch to take your information on the go.

Link to iPhoto

Share your Bento libraries with up to 5 other Bento users on your wired or wireless local area network. Ideal for sharing all kinds of information with family and coworkers.
