Google Calendar has worked for me. I was not a Gmail user, but Google calender has forced me to shift to Gmail. The following are a few of my wishes of features in Google Calendar. (But i know Google people dont listen to me. Like in 'Mark All Read' feature of Google Reader. )
* Configurable duration of the day (eg. show only 7am to 10pm). This will fit the full calendar in my screen (no scrolling needed.)
* A public/shared view of the calendar. Will help me publish my busy/non busy hours.
* Previous 2 days and next 4 days view [ numbers should be configurable ]
* Integrate with Gmail/GTalk/GToolbar more closely
– from calendar give links to associated mail
– from gmail show calendar agenda in sidebar
* To-Do lists
* Set to-date equal to from-date by default if not available (eg. while adding event from mail)
* New entry / edit event details should also be popup ( like the event info popup )
* Multiple days (but not full day) event should be shown like single day event streteched across multiple days. (The current way of showing it in full day events is stupid.)
* Upload a file associated with an event
* Cell phone notification service in india and should be synced with a cell phones calendar 🙂 (like Active Sync in Outlook)
* Should avoid being classified as "web based email" in websense!

Don’t forget Google Desktop Integration and the ability to view offline and the ability to add events that will be added to the online calendar once connected, all through Desktop!
I want to be able to ditch Outlook completely, but I am in too many meetings with no wifi access.

Hi,
if you want to sync both ways between Outlook and Google Calendar…try RemoteCalendars plugin for Outlook 2003!
http://sourceforge.net/projects/remotecalendars
And take a look on how to do it 😉
