After a long week of tweaking, testing and final updates, we are happy to announce that the new calendar we have been working on is live.
This new calendar includes the following:
- Recurring events
- Multiple notifications for multiple people
- Improved event insight by hovering over the event name.
- Start and End times on events - now you can set the duration of an event
- More information on each event - you can enter location, description etc
- Improved privacy and sharing options - you can now have project specific events
- Much faster load times and month switching - we re-wrote the rendering and stacking of events from the ground up
- Event attendees - you can now mark people as attending an event and give them edit access
- much more...
This is version 1 and we think it's pretty good. Let us know what you think in the comments or on Twitter.
Updates are already underway and will include:
- Bi-weekly recurring events
- Print view
- Day and Week views
- plus a few surprises ;-)
We wanted to get this long awaited update out the door and set a definite list of features for this initial version. People have sent us wish-list items that we have noted that may not have made it into this release. As noted above there are more features on the way.
The main app also got a few updates in this release. We'll let you guys work out what we added, fixed or updated ;-)
Have a good weekend and watch the main blog and this months newsletter (Due in about 2 weeks) for a full post on the new calendar.
