Title: Scrybe... the new way forward for calendaring?
Post by: M3ta7h3ad on December 14, 2006, 05:38:27 AM
Hmmm seen a few people now getting into using a calendar on the ol pc.

Just watched a really interesting intro movie about a new website/service thats starting up. currently in a closed beta at the moment but are hoping to go public in the new year.

Rather impressive!! :) Safe to say... Ive handed over me email ready for an invite already :)

my only fear is the reliance on an internet service; if they go bust / have tech problems then you lose your calendar.

Apart from that it does look good.

Didnt they show just in the beginning how well it worked off line ?

Well I signed for the beta in any case, why not give it a try before judging ?

yeah they do but if their site dies surely you cannot update / get your calendar onto another machine ?!

I too have signed up for the beta, it looks like a great idea.

lol well I use outlook because it syncs up with my mobile, pda, and now I have a desktop based system that works really well. :) Thing that hooked me to scrybe was the papersync function :D lol rather handy if I didnt want to take my phone somewhere.
