Google has released their own complex digital calendar application in an effort to compete with similar services currently offered by competitors such as Yahoo and Microsoft.

Google's Calendar is somewhat late to the party and fills a gap in an already confusingly broad array of available applications. And even if Yahoo and MSN have been offering similar services for years, Google may attract users quickly through a sense of simplicity, flexibility and ease of use of the application.
Still dubbed as a "Beta" service, Calendar requires a Gmail account and already offers most features users today expect from their electronic calendars. Existing Ical and Outlook calendars can be imported and be shared in groups; events can be repeated and can be attached to features such as alarms, notes and maps. However, the company also managed to integrate some features to provide the application with a unique Google flavor.

    Sorry, Google Calendar does not support your browser yet, so things may break in unexpected ways.
    Press OK to see a list of browsers that we support. Or cancel to try to use it anyways.
