Calendars have been discussed quite a bit today. Scoble did a a good job with his 2006 report card. He tore Yahoo! Calendar apart for not being able to do the most basic things like select a specific time for flight information...
Time has been a hot topic too. Time is perishable, time is scarce in this new world of abundance.
Ajax calendars are popping up all over the place. Let me say it again, we don't need another ajax calendar. If using Ajax and accessing feeds is your idea of calendar innovation, give up. I'm talking to you 30boxes and Google Calendar. We have to break free of what we traditionally think of as a calendar. It's not about 30 boxes or 7 days; it's about time. Time. Managing time, making time, making life less complicated, make meaning out of my life...
That's not what Google is doing, nor anyone else that I've seen. You may think that it's not a calendar's job to do that--make meaning out of my life. But why not? A temporal visualization of my existence is perfectly suited for a calendar context. I am more than just my events. Let's see a calendar that truly understands this.
