Ok, so I think this is just great. Google launched yesterday a slick web calendar. This is wonderful for families who really have no idea what is going on in each other's lives. So what you do is upload your Microsoft Outlook Calendar (or iCal for those lucky enough to have a Mac). That puts your whole schedule up online. Don't worry it is private by default, unless you want to make it public. Now you can allow certain people access to your calendar. So when they sign in to their account your calendar is overlayed. This is perfect for trying to find a time for everyone to get together. You can know when everyone in the family has vacation/free time. There are some other cool features like inviting people via email and when they respond they are automatically added to an RSVP list. This thing is still in beta (meaning test stage) but I think it has great potential. Some people worry about Google knowing too much about them, but who cares that I am going to the dentist at 3 pm next week??? Have a look here.
