Calendars

I used to use a calendar application on Palm. It would sync with my computer, and I had easy access to my business schedule.... I've since moved on to using the Google calendar (http://calendar.google.com). The main advantage of Google is that it's available anyplace where the Internet is, and there are several apps that will sync with it, if you prefer another interface (e.g., Apple's calendar).

An additional advantage of the Google calendar is that you may create multiple calendars (e.g., business, personal) and share whichever you like, with friends or business associates. You may also import their google calendars, along with readily available public ones (like US holidays).

Like most other calendars, Google's may be configured to alert you of upcoming events. Email and text messages are supported.
