Web applications for task scheduling seem excessive for an individual, except perhaps if you need to share your daily calendar with others and to view their schedules. On the other hand, I'm in favor of any application that isn't MS Outlook. On an unrelated note, I was recently meme-tagged, and now I'd like to tag you. Please see the Friday 1/18/08 entry on my page for details. Hi Rachael,

I'm a wanna-be Mac girl, and I sympathize with your dilemma. I used to use Outlook for all my email/calendar/to-do functioning, and it worked great for me - WHEN it worked. It constantly froze up my laptop, and this was back when this machine was still near-top-of-the-line and brand spanking new. Have you seen this site? http://www.opensourcemac.org/ I don't know if there is anything useful there that you may not have already tried, but you never know. I'm positive that one of the main reasons people are using these various web-based applications lately is that hardware-based apps aren't nearly up to snuff; and if they are, it's because you have to pay an arm and a leg for them. Or they would work great if they would just quit making your computer die all the time. Hey there, @Stacy! I’m a wanna-be Mac girl, and I sympathize with your dilemma.

I can set up recurring "events," but it sort of looks lame... Guess I could always go back to Entourage?

Guess I could always go back to Entourage?

We have a dry-erase board on the fridge too, where we keep a running grocery list and meal plan and a household to-do list (vacuuming, dishes, etc.). Thank you for stopping over and leaving a comment! @Trysha, I’ve used organizers like that in past as well, and I always enjoyed using them.
