You are able to share your calendar with your family, friends and colleague easily. With the weather schedule available for a week your planning can take the weather events into account also. The software program comes with alerts/reminders. You can choose to have any one of the three forms available; these are pop-ups, emails and SMS messages. If you set these alerts judiciously, you are not likely to forget an important event ever again.
You can have the calendar available as a transparent overlay over the wallpaper on your desktop. It is completely customizable. Change the font, color and the background the way you like it. There is a choice of skins available too for the program. In a business setting the desktop iCalendar can show group`s events to everyone. Reminders can be set up for people to remind about their impending tasks.The displays are very intuitive. There are four display in all one is the weekly weather forecast that shows not only the predicted high and low temperatures but also an overall forecast if the day will be a clear sunny day or an overcast or a rainy day. The calendar is a straightforward calendar with buttons to move to past or future months. The display for the TO DO list is interesting. It looks exactly like a to-do list on paper. Once a task is complete, you strike through it. This display too has the entry struck through. The fourth module is for event during the week such as someone`s birthday and so on. It is quite handy tool.
