to have our accounts, address books, etc. in shared directories.

How can we do it?

Assuming you have root access, add you both to the same group
("testgroup" in this case), and make a directory with these permissions:

dr-xrwxr-x 2 root testgroup 4.0K 2009-03-04 13:16 shared/

The owner, and user and world permissions are up to you, and the size
depends on how many items are in it.
