Google is now calendaring
How is calendaring search? I mean, if Google’s core competency is Search, why are they now providing a calendar? Don’t get me wrong. I’m generally a fan of Google. Not sure why I want them to hold my calendar, in addition to my files, photos, email, web site, shopping, etc.
Aggregation of information can be a dangerous thing. Right now, I don’t seem to benefit from it. I don’t see a way to easily add events from my Gmail to my Gcalendar or link a video from the Gvideo into my Gcalendar. If I’m going to put all of my data in one place, I would like to get some benefit from the aggregation rather than just worry about the next subpoena.
Hi Diane,

Google…I could be wrong but it’s looking more like a thin client MS Office as time gots by. Google is getting people to turn over more and more of their content to them but Calendaring was the first thing that made me wonder whether I wanted them to be able to see what appts I have. I wonder what is next? jk
