Online Calendars

Online calendars are getting popular, and here's the latest one.

Although they're still in beta, 30Boxes.com allows you to request for an invitation to test their online calendar service. Om Malik says that "30 Boxes will be to calendars what GMail was to Email."

It's interesting to see what innovative people can do with some funding (read: less than US$1 million). Build an application that people will find useful and watch what happens.

Some people like traditional paper calendars and planners because, well, they have easy access to it. Growth in broadband internet access, however, will eventually make the online world as easily accessible as that paper notebook in your bag.

When that happens, you can expect online calendar use to explode.
