Google calendar can be a great tool for organizing your life. Sure, it's not as powerful as other desktop-based calendar applications or even personal digital assistants. But it's free and it works on just about any Web browser. You can even use it across multiple computers-you don't need to stick to one machine, as most other desktop-based calendaring applications are limited to. However, sometimes you would still want to use your own desktop application. Google Calendar does have limitations. For one, there's no internal means to handle tasks or to-do lists. And the interface can be a bit slow when you're working on slow connections. Fortunately, Google Calendar allows for syncing with external applications, by virtue of SyncML, and through one-way syncing via XML. For instance Apple's iCal, which is built-into Mac os X, can be used to subscribe to your Google Calendar, and will automatically check Google Calendar every few minutes to check for new items.
