I use bbdb3; never got to grips with org-contacts and I have too
many contacts in any case. bbdb3 provides a subtle improvement to
bbdb2: better more logical key bindings and less surprising
behaviour overall. I like it.
Org will interpret the "anniversary" (e.g. birthdays, wedding
anniversary, other dates) field in bbdb entries to bring in
information into the agenda view, if desired. Look at
=org-bbdb-anniversary-format-alist=.

I am a confirmed gnus user. No other email system comes close to
doing what gnus can do. Given the large volume of email I get,
splitting and scoring are essential to survival! Integration with
bbdb is also obviously key for me.
