HipCal

HipCal is a nice Web2.0 Calendar for anyone who is looking to use one. I have been using Yahoo! Calendar for a while, but that was mediocre. HipCal not only has a nice design and interface, but some great features.

First of all, it uses enough AJAX to make me drool with excitement and awe. Second of all, it looks pretty. The layout is neat and organized, but still has the information you need and would expect from a calendar. My favorite feature is the reminder. Not only does it have a feature to send you an e-mail when an event is nearing, but it will also send a TXT MSG to your phone. A great feature if you know you won’t be need a computer to get the reminder. If you are looking for a nice calendar program that is free, easy to use, and web based, this is your best bet. Later!
