iCal: One app for everything
By ron carlson, Insanely Great Mac
July 17th 2002
Stay up-to-date and in sync wherever you go with one consistent interface
Apple has introduced , a new calendar program with built-in Internet sharing that lets
business users, consumers and educators manage multiple calendars, share them over the
Internet and automatically keep them updated.
Users can publish their iCal calendars on the web, so colleagues, friends and family
members can subscribe and view them in iCal on their own Mac. In addition, iCal can
automatically check for updates to imported calendars on a regular basis, so shared
calendars are always up to date.
"iCal lets you see all the calendars that make up your life," said Steve Jobs. "With
built-in Internet sharing, iCal opens a new era of wide-area calendar sharing between
colleagues, friends, family and schools."
With iCal, Mac users can:
� keep track of schedules, appointments and tasks, viewing activities by day, week or
month;
� manage and view multiple calendars at once from within one unified window to easily
identify schedule conflicts or free time at-a-glance;
� publish calendars on the web to share with colleagues, family and friends;
� subscribe to other calendars to keep up with work schedules, family events, school
events and more;
� send standards-based email event invitations;
� organize and keep track of activities with built-in To Do list management;
� be notified of upcoming events on screen, by email or text messaging to a mobile
phone or pager; and
� quickly find any event, task or name entered into iCal using its fast search tool.
In addition, iSync allows users to sync their iCal calendars with the new generation
of Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones, PalmOS devices and the iPod for access to their
most current address books and calendars on the go.
