Calendars: Super Style

We are living in a Web 2.0 world, and I am a Web 2.0 girl.

Gone are my gorgeous Ansel Adams calendars.

Here to stay? My on-line calendar!

I started using googlecalendar earlier this year and now I’m hooked.

Since Professor X and I are both more likely to look at our computer screen than a picture calendar, this suits us well.

Plus, I can coordinate my schedule at work with that at home.

Some tips to make calendar life easier:

  • Color-coordinate each person in the family’s activities.
  • Use “repeat” options so repeated activities only need to be typed in once (such as days of vacation or weekly lessons)
  • Periodically print out 3 months of calendars at a time and hang them on a large bulletin board. It is much easier to visualize future events when they are all staring at you. Plus, beginning of the month activities are not forgotten.

  1. I have an online calendar too, but it’s software I downloaded. Which means whenever my harddrive gets wiped out (which happened twice this summer), I can re-install the program, but everything I’ve marked on the calendar is gone. Which makes it a little useless. This makes much more sense. Thanks for the tip!

  2. PS. Oops, what I have is a computer calendar, not an online calendar!

  3. i forgot about google calendar. i signed up and then never did anything. I think I am going to start using it again.
