Birthday Alarm is a good idea but like every electronic solution, they get greedy and try to opt-in everyone by default (because advertising pays by head or by view) instead of trusting people to do what they want to do. I applaud you for trying to get organized though. I just keep all birthdays in my email address book and manually look up addresses by specific person, date or month in order to send out birthday e-cards (or store-bought cards for family and those closest to me).

[Birthday Alarm has] been around for many years but they've made it peskier since the last time I used it.
