Dan Gillmor posts an entry referring to a Mike Landberg article about group calendaring. Mike writes:
Trumba (www.trumba.com) does an outstanding job of delivering shared calendaring to home computer users, assuming everyone involved is willing to sign up for a Trumba account and faithfully keep their personal calendars up to date.
And Dan concludes:
Bottom line: Keep looking. Sigh.
I say this: Sign up for an account? Keep calendars up to date? Ha! Read my Get Real posting on “How to build a meeting scheduler”, which talks about the design philosophy (including no registration, no ‘up to date-ness’ requirement) underlying Meet-O-Matic.
OK, OK, it’s a narrow niche that Meet-O-Matic covers (coarse-grained scheduling, e.g. “let’s get our book group together” or “can we schedule that corporate away day some time in the next two months”), but it sure rules the roost in that niche and yes, I’m damn proud of it.
