The world could use a Google Calendar

There's been a lot of speculation about Google Calendar recently. And you know what? I sure as hell hope they do it. There's been so little innovation in the world of on-line calendars these last few years. Perhaps Google getting into the act would finally change that.

I've often wished for a web-based calendar that didn't suck but they all seem to. I want something that:

* plugs nicely into my e-mail client (Thunderbird)

* has busy search capabilities, invites, and other scheduling aids

* syncs with modern hand-held devices and mobile phones

* does resource scheduling (conference rooms, summer houses, whatever)

* handles conflict resolution and notification

* sends reminders and alerts

* sports a sane permission system

* produces RSS feeds

* provides vCal support

* is presented with a modern, slick DHTML interface

About Remember The Milk

Managing to-do lists is generally not a fun way to spend your time. We created Remember The Milk so that you no longer have to write your to-do lists on sticky notes, whiteboards, random scraps of paper, or the back of your hand.

We began work on Remember The Milk in August 2004. What started as a simple idea soon became a huge web application with every feature imaginable (yes, there's a reason why this took more than a year to finish). Remember The Milk was created by two Australians and one stuffed monkey. You can read more about the team.

One thing these creators seem to forget is that the

sticky notes, whiteboards, random scraps of paper, or the back of your hand
are very portable and convenient - in fact, almost weightless which is more than can be said about any computer. You don't have to boot up the alternatives, there is no danger of them crashing with BSODS, batteries running flat, missing DLLs and a host of other off-putting reasons.

Technology for technology's sake (in ohter words: why have a simple task when our technology can make it infinitely more complex and expensive*).

*I appreciate the software is free but the hardware isn't.

Will this also work while you finish your early morning tea? I don't drink coffee as my first beverage of the day.
