Ding! users can locate and connect with other users of Ding! quickly and easily. All user WhoDPs are stored in static directories by a particular switchboard server. That switchboard can be searched by user name, organization, and email address, although such search functions may be configured differently for particular switchboards. Additionally, larger "people locator" services, such as 411, are adding the WhoDP option for all of their directory entries. However, thanks to the enhanced security features Ding! provides, simply being located by another Ding! user doesn't mean they have access to your "presence" information or the ability to interact with you without your explicit permission.
