Hey, I’ve used a lot of calendering systems in my life. I think I’ve got one that works well enough and I actually like it.

Google Calenders – platform independent calendering accessible from anywhere. Love it.

CalGoo – picks up where Google Cal leaves off – let me work on my calender off-line and work with it faster because I’m using my system in real time and my slow, slow, slow network later to sync while I’m doing something else.

I especially like that CalGoo runs on my Mac Tiger 10.4.x at work, my Ubuntu Feisty laptop, my wife Windows 2000 (yep, still) laptop and my Win XP desktop at home. And it’s exactly thttp://www2.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifhe same everywhere.

Now, getting ahold of CalGoo is a little confusing since their approach to distributing software is very streamlined – they’re stuff is completely (as far as I know) platform independent. So, no lists to choose from, no confusing questions, etc.

Register at their web site and hit the Upgrade link in the upper left. Install what arrives. During installation, you’ll tell the program your credentials at CalGoo and also your credentials at Google Calander. It will do the rest – happy day.
