"BusySync": Apples "iCal" endlich zu einem richtigen Shared Calendar machen

Eine Systemerweiterung namens "BusySync" ("Share Calendars the Easy Way") bietet jetzt endlich, was Apple uns jahrelang vorenthalten hat: echtes Calendar Sharing anstelle von One-Way-Publishing mit Read-only Zugang via "MobileMe" (vormals ".Mac"). Endlich. Darüber hinaus synchronisiert "BusySync" auch Google-Kalender. Screen2.0 stellt das interessante 25 US-Dollar teure Tool vor, das den "Macworld Best of Show 2008" Award gewonnen hat. Zum Testen gibt es eine kostenlose 30-Tage-Vollversion.

Die Macher über ihr eigenes Tool: "With BusySync it's incredibly easy to share iCal calendars with family or coworkers on your LAN without the need for a dedicated server. Shared calendars can be viewed and edited by multiple users, and changes are instantly published and synchronized with all users on the network. You can even make changes to shared calendars while offline and your changes will sync when you reconnect to the network."

Key Features:

• "Bonjour networking — BusySync automatically synchronizes calendars with others on your local area network. No dedicated servers or complicated network settings to configure. It just works.
• Google Calendar Synchronization — Sync iCal with Google Calendar for online read-write access to your calendars from any computer, anywhere.
• Multi-user editing — BusySync allows multiple users to share and edit calendars with full read-write access. Changes made by one user are instantly synchronized with all others on the network.
• Security — Calendars can be password protected to provide users with read-write or read-only access. SSL encryption keeps your data private when syncing on the LAN or with Google.
• Offline access — Changes made to a calendar while disconnected from your home or office network are automatically synchronized when you reconnect to the network.
