RSS Calendar
OK, I realize I have been on kind of an RSS kick lately; however, I'm really digging all of the cools uses people are finding for it. The latest one I've found is called RSS Calendar. As the name suggests, it lets you create an calendar that you distribute via RSS.
In addition to allowing you to keep track of your own appointments, other users of RSS Calendar can save events from your RSS feed into their own RSS Calendar.
One of the cooler features is the ability to publish your RSS Calendar on your website. I am thinking about developing a new feature on sMoRTy71.com that keeps track of upcoming game, movie and music releases. If I can get the formatting right, I may give it a try.
Even if I don't use it on the site, RSS Calendar might just allow me to transition away from Outlook (until Gmail adds a calendar function or until Mozilla's Sunbird is finished).
