My favorite way is using my Mac's Address Book program.

The honest truth about it is that it connects to every other program on my Mac that uses any kind of email or instant messaging, and I can add the person as an iChat buddy and a contact for Mail.

The best part is that I can also do the reverse: I meet someone online, start an iChat conversation with them (AIM), then get their name and stuff and put it in under their description, and poof, they're not just an iChat buddy: they're also a full-on contact.

Very useful, and often overlooked.

If Outlook does the same thing, good, but I still prefer the Mac's way of doing it.
