“About us” is a collection of plug-ins for Apple’s Address Book. The “About us” plug-ins augment the standard functions provided by Address Book for date and address fields. For a date, “About us” will compute the person’s age (birthday) and the duration since an event (anniversary). It will also offer to open iCal to the date of the next birthday or anniversary. For an address, it will offer to open the default browser to the weather report for the zip code in the address.
The download includes an installer, documentation, and source. Installation instructions that do not require the installer are included. The “About us” plug-ins are distributed under the new BSD license.

Requirements
I don't know. I've developed and tested the plug-ins with OS X 10.4 (Tiger). There is no obvious reason why they won't work with 10.5 (Leopard), but I haven't tested it. Apple has made improvements to Applescript in some versions of OS X, so it is possible that the plug-ins will not work under 10.3 (Panther) or 10.2 (Jaguar). I'll update this information as I receive reports of whether it runs under other OS versions.
