[Hidden-tech] Online, shareable calendars

[Matt Lampiasi]

I've never heard anything like that bad about google calendar either. It 
certainly does have some layout inflexibilities, but a customer of mine 
was using it before we moved to exchange, and it had some nice group 
scheduling features with group overlays that they liked alot. If you 
don't have an exchange server as an option, there is some sort of free 
microsoft online that works with outlook, and i'm sure there is some 
vague licensing option to get more services/features. I'm sorry I forget 
what its called but PRETTY sure its part of office online, i tried it 
with office 2007 so not sure if its an option on older versions.  Also 
this is not exactly platform independent and not sure your platform.
