Google Calendar - I'm liking it!


Google Calendar is now open for business and I have effectively wasted the last hour playing with it. I like what I see. I have been struggling to do group calendars with colleagues and friends, and maybe, just maybe, Google has something to offer.

Looking at the application from a community perspective, I can imagine having a calendar for each of my communities that I can overlay with my personal calendar. The community calendars would be shared. Maybe one way to help us manage multimembership?

I'm still playing with the settings, but what I really need is a few other people willing to share their calendars with me to see how the coordination works. If you are game, send me an email nancyw at fullcirc dot com, OK? THANKS!

I am curious if you have tried Airset? I have time invested in it so I don't want to switch unless there is a big advantage and I need to hear from someone that has tried both.

Nope, I haven't tried Airset (or, in my premature senility, if I tried it, I already forgot it!)Investment of time to set up is a BIG issue.

And by the way, I finally figured out how to share my calendar with individuals - I have to enter their email addies, then they need to have an account. That could be a snag. There is a way to publicly show your calendar, but clearly I have not mastered that yet!
