Happy prospecting.

I currently live in New Mexico and work for a local government in Virginia. My work email is set up on an Outlook exchange server. Back when I was actually living and working in Virginia – I started forwarding all my Outlook mail to my gmail account so I didn’t have to worry about the very small mailbox limits imposed by the IT department. I discovered a cool thing… meetings that are set up in Outlook and forwarded to gmail end up in your google calendar. Just yesterday, I set it up so that my iCal subscribes to the google calendar (this is very easy — in google calendar under the information on sharing there is an ical button. Push the button and you get an address to subscribe to the gmail calendar. Go to iCal -paste it in and you are done!

The cool part of all of this is a) this all syncs to my Treo and b) meetings that are scheduled in Eastern time somehow get converted to Mountain time when they show up on my iCal! Now I’m just waiting for spanning sync to start the public beta so that I can try bidirectional syncing between gmail and iCal.

My husband thinks this whole thing is “really geeky” — I was just excited to get all the different parts of my virtual work life to work together.
