Hi,
sync is possible if you’ve got Outlook 2003…just use RemoteCalendars plugin!

Here you can find all the instructions ;)

to: TonySmith2 Have you looked at SugarCRM OpenSource: sugarforge.org Commercial supported at: SugarCRM.com Depends on how "organised" you really want your group to be. It contains full integrated calendar, contacts, email campaigns, heaps of other features. Best of all is the flexibility of fields - easily edited as Admin. Plenty of 3rd party plug-ins.

I tried Google Calendar and while it worked, it is still not up to par for where it should be. First, why doesn’t it sync with anything? I dont care that it can import and export my calendars from other services, it does me no good if it can’t sync to other calendars (like my outlook calendar). Second, I want Gmail to see any date in any email as a possible event for the calendar, maybe put a little link in the sidebar of the message to turn the email into an event on the date listed in the email. For instance if I get an email from someone saying, “Lets meet for lunch next friday.” I want Gmail to think, ohhh, this could be a great calendar entry and let me easily add it. Third, why cant I open the calendar to some extent within Gmail, and not always as a seperate tab or window?

Here’s a little aside;
I’m putting together a colletion of tools for a specific professional group to use to organise themselves. it’s all about online calendars with printable versions, etc.

anyone know of any good open-source products like this? pref in PHP using MySql.

cheers peeps!

Google Calendar is seriously good. I love the easy integration of other calendars (for holidays etc.) the interface, the text-parsing – but if they could add a simple-line break for the events, I’d be even happier.

Very impressive work.

Doug Bowman has blogged about his involvement in developing Google Calendar. I'm guessing it's because of him that it specifies a doctype, but he obviously didn't win all battles on the web standards front. Re: integration with gmail, they can certainly do more than a link which opens the calendar in a new window. Or maybe they don't intend to, to cater to the audience who want to use one without having to rely on the other.

It looks like my gmail has been updated and integrated with google calendar, at least to an extent. Now you can switch between the two easily.

Hey, it’s much better than Outlook already.
