We have been a bit remiss in promoting some of the projects that our third party developers have been working on.  We haven’t even ever posted about Zach’s most excellent Firefox plugin which has been out for ages.  Our plan is to get a developer wiki going soon and be more diligent.

Ted Gilchrist has put together an experimental mashup that is pretty wild.  It is called Robocal and it uses our API and some IVR magic to let you make a phone call directly to your calendar.  That’s right, 30 Boxes speaks.  Using your keypad you can navigate from day to day.

Not only that, you can add voice notes to any day.  Robocal records your note and attaches it as a file to an event on your calendar!

There is about an hour lag between when you add an event in 30 Boxes and it syncs with Robocal.  Voice notes, however, are added within 5 minutes.
Nice work Ted. Check it out here.
