    Very cool! and very helpful. Can’t figure out how to color the Buddy events, though — but the webcals look great.

    I also see that my wife has a default 3 “truthiness” rating. If that’s rnot realy, really high, then 30boxes could be contributing to marital discord — better find a way to allow us to set that FAST.

    Yay! Thanks a bunch! So glad these features are now out.

    @Alan:
    To color buddy events, go to the “View” menu and click on the little box to the left of your buddy’s name.

    Narendra,
    Your little web app continues to get better and better. It is absolutly brilliant the way 83 degrees has created a powerfull calendar, to-do list, event planing, and online idenity colector, CRM tool, start page. Just WOW! I cant wait to see how you monetize this without alienating your users. Keep up the good work!

    The daily repeating events and new 15 minute SMS reminders are going to be very, very, very useful :-) Thanks for continuing to innovate and strive for excellence!

    Make the custom color thing come up by default!!! No need for two steps to get there.

    What is so difficult about allowing to modify an event in a repeating series without modifying them all? For example: a meeting repeating every Friday 8am that needs to be held exceptionally at 10am next Friday!

    Narendra Says:

    Jorge, it has to do with the way we currently store events. You could add another event for that friday and hide that specific date in the series.

    Great work guys! Any chance to get some external webcal event feeds included in your RSS feed or web badge? It would have to be an option, though. Keep up the good work!
