There is a new app called Google Calendar Sync. This was key for us to start our migration to Google. Now that we have this and some of my admin can continue to use Outlook is making life a lot easier.

We've been discussing this same topic at the college. We will definitely look into Google again. Does anyone know if you can upload Outlook calendars into Google automatically? Many of our users are already using Outlook, and it would be great to be able to dump those into Google and then use google to do the web cal.

Latley, we've been getting complaints that it isn't flexible enough for users needs. For example it doesn't allow the public users to filter events so a parent at an elementary school has to pick their events out from stuff happening at a highschool, rather than just ticking a box and only showing events at one school. Currently we're reviewing Trumba which seems to do what we want http://www.trumba.com/connect/default.aspx but it costs 100.00 a month (sort of steep IMO) We've looked at bedework http://www.bedework.org/bedework/ which is an interesting open source project, but doesn't seem particularly user friendly. Can anyone recommend a web based shared calendar that supports filter-views and it reasonably easy to set up and use? Bonus points if it's GPL or Open Source!! Thanks!
