30 Boxes Review
30 Boxes is the online calendar I like the most. It does a pretty good job imitating an old fashioned paper calendar that you would lay out on your desk, but adds in the convenience of being accessibly from any internet connection.
Events are tagged and sorted, can be set to repeat at a specific interval. RSS feeds can be pulled to the calendar to show updates as well.
But the most exciting featuere of 30 Boxes is one that I did not have the chance to try out. 30 Boxes works best when used by a group of friends/co-workers because events can be shared accross calendars. Invitations to events can be sent through 30 Boxes and be automatically placed on both people's calendars. The tagging system helps to protect privacy as only events labeled with a specified tag are shared with the specified group.
30 Boxes has already caught on with me at least. I use it quite extensively to keep track of long term commitments and doctor's appointments that run into the long future. My one quibble with it so far is that I wish it could easily synchronize with my cell phones calendar or send alerts to my cell phone via text message.
