The cons of Google Calendar
I love the Google Calendar – I’ve given up on iCal and switched to it for all my task management. This is mainly due to it’s ability to add calendar entries based on recognising English – like “Dinner at Suruchi 7pm Next Friday”. others are not so Keen, and Paul Scoble has written a post on what he finds wrong with it – much better than just saying that it’s rubbish.
Sometimes I forget that people are actually reading my ranting and expect more than just “I hate it.”
It makes interesting reading, and I have to agree with some of his points. It is an online calendar, so if you don’t have access to the net, you don’t have access to the calendar. For me this isn’t a big issue, but I can see how it could be for some people, thoguh I can set up iCal to also update itself from gCal.
