Abstract
Provided is a method, system, and program for providing information on users of wireless devices in a database to a personal information manager of one user wireless device. Records are maintained for users of wireless devices within the database. For at least one shadowed user, a list of others users tracking the shadowed user is maintained in the database. A determination is made, for each shadowed user, whether a modification was made to one database record for the shadowed user. For each user on the list of each shadowed user, information is transmitted to the wireless device of the user on the list indicating the shadowed user and the determined modification made with respect to the database record of the shadowed user. The transmitted information is displayed at the wireless device receiving the transmitted information.
