Our IT policy now prevents me from doing this so I stopped syncing and removed the software. I also removed all of the work appointments from my Google calendar.<br /><br />Users reported they were still receiving Google calendar reminders about meetings.

In addition to multiple reminders, Google Calendar added:<BR/><BR/>"* Expanded printing options: When you click on the printer icon to print your calendar, you'll now be presented with a number of formatting options. Options include- font size, orientation, and whether or not you'd like to print in color or black and white. To try out this feature, simply hit the printer icon and print away!<BR/><BR/>* The "Send to a friend" feature: if you're subscribing to a public calendar you think your friends will also love, you can now send them the link to this calendar directly from Google Calendar. When they receive your email, they'll have the opportunity to add your calendar to their Google Calendar service."Alex Chituhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02618542750965508582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-50007809035359415692007-05-03T21:44:00.000-07:002007-05-03T21:44:00.000-07:00It still works for me.

Ability to SMS appointment other direction would be helpful - so when we aren't online (or only on device that doesn't play nicely with gcal) we can still update one central calendar, and not need to do a future synch. Also SMS a date to a short code and receive back our appointments for that date would be nice for the same use case...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
