30boxes is awesome. Why did I hesitate? I have no good reason to use a desktop calendar any more – although I guess I’ll keep iCal synched up to 30boxes for those moments I’m offline and for when I want to synch with the phone. 30boxes provides the kind of piece-of-cake management and synchronisation that I’ve always sort of vaguely wanted from Apple’s stupid, over-priced, under-specified, clumsily-named .Mac and, like all good Web 2.0 apps it provides new terms of reference: the question now is not “can I synch my primary desktop calendar with the web so I can get it when I’m away from my computer?” but “why shouldn’t I keep my primary calendar on the web and synch it with the desktop when I need to?”
