    They're got sharing, hosting(for those who didn't pay for .mac), even private hosting for secret corporate schedules. Plus an iPod giveaway for those who share! I've got one already, but a second wouldn't hurt. I've already given them my schedule for the local MUG.

  4. Gatta love it... by JelloG3 · · Score: 4, Informative

    iCal is great if you have a t68i Sony Ericsson phone, and use the bluetooth to sync the devices using isync (i know that isync is in beta) but its worth the risk when you have tons of appointments to remember, and tryin to enter them into your phone calandar.... for example to get letter "c" hit the number 1 key 3 times etc etc.... take forever

    And now with this new site, i can even have my phone remind me when star trek enterprise is going to show!! (Found under the "New Calendar Section on the iCal page)

  5. Re:Wow! by WatertonMan · · Score: 3, Interesting
    iCal has the opportunity to really offer very nice calender services for all OSX applications. The downside is that the iCal application itself is rather slow and definitely an initial release. Further it, along with the Address application, have many questionable limitations. Both cry out for a 2.0 release.

    One big thing I'd like to see reconciled is some sort of Office integration with Outlook on the PC. If Apple could do that then they'd really have a very compelling argument for PC users to switch. (Minus their hardware problems)

  6. iPrefer iCalShare by droleary · · Score: 4, Informative

    Links to (in addition to various other iCal sites) about 700 calendars, including a calendar of its own new calendars! Worth a look: iCalShare.

  7. iCal format and Mozilla's Calendar by Kalak · · Score: 3, Informative

    The iCal format is compatible with the Mozilla Calendar format, so this is site can potentially be useful to nearly all /.
