TinyCal Usage TipUsage Tip amd Caveat - Version: 1.3.2, 4/5/2008 10:53PM PST

The usage tip: Configure TinyCal to show two months (or more) in horizontal layout. This way there'll be adequate width at the bottom to show calendar events without truncating.

The caveat: If you're running TinyCal in demo mode and then get a license code, you'll currently be completely flumoxed as to how to enter it. The solution is to log out (or restart), then launch TinyCal and it will be self-evident.

TinyCal ReviewA Menu Bar Calendar... and More - Version: 1.3.2, 4/5/2008 10:33PM PST

TinyCal starts out by giving you a discrete menu bar icon that, when clicked, spawns a tear-off calendar which can be left in place or moved wherever you'd like, and can be variously configured viz size, number of months show, orientation, etc. Very nice.

But wait, there's more. TinyCal syncs automatically with Google Calendar, events created with Googled are mirrored on TinyCal and vice versa. Extremely nice.

But wait, there's more. If you use a BlackBerry, iPhone or other advanced smart phone with a data plan, install Google Sync and you'll have three-way continuous calendar sync between your mobile device, Google Calendar and your Mac. Superb.

The only thing left out of the mix, obviously, is Apple's iCal. Hopefully, the developer will add this in the future.

TinyCal CommentaryOh how I wish. - Version: 1.3.2, 4/5/2008 05:16PM PST

In the mid nineties, Apple included a small, free, calendar utility with the laptops it sold. I loved that utility. LOVED IT ! If only its author would update it and release the same thing for OSX I would pay fifty bucks to have it.

TinyCal comes closer to that wonderful tool than anything else I've seen so far. A little effort might move it up to gold star status with me. I plan to email the developer and raise the issue.
