Hey you — yes, you — I’m talking to you! I bet you’ve always wanted a neat little calendar to keep track of things in your life. And I bet you’ve wanted to share it or portions of it with family and friends? Look no further — 30Boxes is here!
30 Boxes is a very nifty calendar that allows you to add things simply by typing them in. For example, if I have lunch with my sister next friday, I simply type in the top “lunch with sister next friday at 1pm” and it puts a calendar entry for me! You can also add the conventional way by going to the day and clicking Add.
The neat part is you can add your friends calendars to yours and view them all together in one place. You can even add DeafDC or other RSS sources to your calendar and see new entries as they pop up.
On top of all this, you can set reminders for your events and tag them with “keywords” like on Gmail. You can share calendar items with certain keywords to certain people. Heck, you can even create RSS feeds with certain keywords and publish it.
If you’ve ever wanted a calendar on the internet, check out 30 Boxes!

30boxes is definitely cool, but I’ve been playing around with Kiko calendar (www.kiko.com) and it does almost all of the things 30boxes does (natural language appointment creation, calendar sharing) but also has tabs, a week and day view, and outlook like dragging of appointments. After trying both of them out, I decided to go with Kiko.

I love 30Boxes’ syndication tools, that’s what sold me really. The ability to chop up and RSS any slice of your calendar. So powerful and it will be flexible in the long term (and they keep adding features!)
