Windows Mobile Calendar Sync with Google Calendar
Monday, September 10th, 2007
I use Google Calendar for all of my school and personal appointments. Since it’s online, I can look at it from any computer. However, I really wanted to sync my Google Calendar with the built-in calendar on my 8525 so that I could get a buzzing or beeping alert an hour or two before each of the appointments. To do this, I am using ActiveGcSync. I actually just downloaded and installed it during my Automata Theory class, so I can’t give a full review, but it seems like it’s working well so far.
It downloaded all of my appointments from Google, and then when I made a change to one appointment on my phone and then re-synchronized it was uploaded and changed in the Google Calendar. The only thing that didn’t seem to work was that I added an e-mail address attendee to the appointment on my phone, but they were not included as a guest in the Google Calendar appointment.
It’s really awesome to see all this technology working together so elegantly.
