6. Calendaring
For co-ordinating or publishing meeting times and events among groups, try a free online calendar. Each free calendars offers different features, so be sure to rank your needs (email reminders, group scheduling, synchronisation with other calendars, recurring events) before choosing.
Yahoo! Calendar offers email reminders, a to do list, synchronisation with PIMs (Palm Pilots or Microsoft Outlook) and calendar publishing (to share with a group), but it does not offer automatic scheduling among group members.
Netcenter Calendar allows you to add national events to your calendar in areas of personal interest such as music, sports or movies. Group calendaring not available.
AnyDay offers superior group scheduling features that include meeting confirmation by email, simplified email meeting scheduling and automatic rescheduling of meetings on everyone’s calendar. Other features include PIM synchronisation and email reminders of recurring events.7. Plan a car journey
I love online mapping. Where else can I get customised door-to-door or city-to-city directions for anywhere in the country? Simply enter your starting and destination address, and choose from a few options (fastest or shortest route? Include or exclude motorways?). The result is a printable, zoomable map with details of driving distance, journey duration and exact directions. The AA online is a good example.
