Google Calendar

Let me just clear the air here: I love my Google Calendar.

I recommend it. I tell friends about it. I say they should have one too.

So far I have six personal calendars in one, plus US Holidays and phases of the moon. I can select which calendars I want to view, making the view either very simple or full and complete. All my calendars are color coded based on my preference.

To give an idea, I have separate calendars for bills, birthdays, concerts, Eagles games, and then just personal stuff.

I defaulted mine to the monthly view, but you can view by day, week, next 7 days or choose an agenda view.

And it’s pretty. It’s fast. It’s easy.

I can access my Google Calendar at work, at home, at a friends house, wherever.

Weather is shown as a tiny icon on today and on the next few days. Roll over for a brief description.

I want a scrybe account, but I’m still on the waiting list, apparently. Their calendar looks sick. Go to their site and watch the video. Pretty crazy. I <3 Web 2.0.

If you don’t have a Google Account, the calendar might be a reason to get one. Or get on the waiting list for scrybe.

PS – I have Outlook 2003 at work. It’s old school, sorta, and I always forget how to access it from home.

Revitalized! Facelift-ed!

Check it out. This blog looks nice now, huh? I upgraded (or Google-ized) my Blogger account, which allows for easy customization. Basically, any person with a few shreds of Internet know-how can put together an aesthetically appealing site of their own without difficulty.

I chose a new template for the layout and I’m really happy with it. I dig the color scheme and fonts.

But it didn’t stop there, oh no.

I have a new profile picture. Taken nearly one year ago on Mother’s Day, but I like it.
My music (viewable under my full profile) is updated and more complete.
I added a feed showing my Clipmarks. Check out www.clipmarks.com, it’s a cool site.
We also now feature my Flickr photostream as little Flash box. Click a photo to check out the full size.

And the Blog Archive is much more accessible thanks to the drop down style. Now just click a year or month to view the titles of the blog posted that month.

There’s also a link to my Last.fm page. Be my friend!

Speaking of, if you want to be my friend on Myspace include a message along with the request saying your got the link from my blog. Occasionally I get random friend requests and I think they are viruses.

I revamped my photo blog in similar fashion. Maybe I’ll get back into posting photos there. We’ll see.

I’m going to try and post more videos here, so keep an eye for them.

Cheers
