You may take a look at this! No misuse of Ajax, i'd better say full use of ajax, even no pages transfer inside. So it's really simple. You may get it here: Free Net online scheduler

No offense but I don’t really see how this is useful at all. Sure, its a nice stylish application but does it serve much purpose? In my opinion, no it doesn’t. What about the good old fashioned way of getting on the blower and scheduling events? Always worked best for me and takes like 30 seconds. All this talk about “I find that with busy people my inbox gets filled up and it becomes harder to exchange times” is just very poor marketing. Who the heck uses email to schedule lunch and stuff with FRIENDS.

I think the internet has finally gotten to some people and have forgotten the traditional ways of reaching their friends, WHICH ARE FAR FAR better.

I wanted to thank everyone for their feedback here on Presdo. It’s been an interesting few days for us because of the TechCrunch post. I hope I can address some of the unanswered questions that were raised.

First, many thanks for the users who reported issues. We’ve tried to address many of them quickly and hope to put up some new code with enhancements as soon as there’s a break in the usage.

Also, there were some questions raised about why Presdo is relevant, etc. Prior to Presdo, one of the things I always did when planning lunches and meetings was to give people several times from which to pick. I found that with busy people, this usually worked better and resulted in fewer back-and-forth exchanges. Then, after the time was chosen, there’d be a couple more exchanges to decide on a place. Too much back and forth that filled up my inbox, and the situation becomes more untenable when more than 2 people are involved.

Presdo tries to supports this kind of exchange that people already do naturally, except it supercharges it. It does so by keeping track of some key pieces of information (such as when people are available), and allows the details to be worked out faster. If you try, you can actually enter all the details of an event on the first screen, and the second screen becomes just the confirmation. Click “Send” you’re done.
It took a while, but we are very delighted with the result. And there is a lot more to do.

Lots of style but little substance…scheduling is a practical task. I’veseen nothing better than SMEScheduler from TheSMESpace (www.thesmespace.com/SMEScheduler). You get automated Group scheduling, user voting on times, automated emails, Calendar Integration, and the ability to access the schedule as RSS, and they just implemented Twitted integration so you get an SMS when users vote. And the whole app. Also works on the Iphone and this is currently a staff pick on the Apple Web site. It’s a cool and functional app.

Presdo saves me the trouble of managing 2 different calendars. I use both Yahoo and Google calendar for different groups of people and purpose. By initiating the schedule on Presdo, I can immediately create and sync with both calendars and plus my pc outlook…OK, so I guess that’s a 3rd calendar. My friends and colleagues appreciate it when I use Presdo because they all have similar issues with multiple calendar apps. That’s exactly the reason to use Presdo…Simplify. Great tool~
