For me it's between my calendar and my wifes and work and friends and and and... Like Keith mentioned, I'm hoping the calendar sharing functions are going to help out! I found out how to access my calendar from my desktop software too. When logged in: 1. 'Manage calendars' 2. then 'My calendars' 3. choose specific calendar by picking the name 4. Under 'Calendar Details', there is a 'Calendar Address' (public) and 'Private Address' (private) Available via ICAL for access from iCal on your Mac or XML to via as an RSS feed. No obvious easy way for Windows users to get it to Outlook yet. Parke, I don’t have a problem between PDA and computer either.

It seems without that many of these online apps fall a little short of useful for me. Perhaps because I have a laptop and a pda that syncs along with a work backup system it's just not meant for folks like me?

I'm looking forward to seeing how I can use it to share information with my wife better - looks like the options to use the calendar overlays will help with that.

I'm particularly interested in sharing calendars with others so Deana and I can sync up a calendar. I'll let you know how that works out. I'm interested to find out if they'll add access to the calendar from an installed client as well. I read through the settings and help to see if I could access it from Apple iCal or Outlook but couldn't identifiy that yet. Great calendar example Lon.

We've moved from running through gravatar.com to running it in-house.

I added a snapshot of how i'm currently using google calendar. I've organized the calendar overlays into Personal. Work. Small Group. (i hope to try making this one a collaborative environment) Disciplines. (daily things like the gym and the scriptures) Priority-Tasks. (my one thing each day that might not have a time associated with it, but needs to get done at some point. somewhat like a to-do list) I'd love to see how other people end up organizing things.
