I need an online calendar that supports multiple timezones

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Every time I go to Google Calendar (gCal) it asks me if I want to change my default timezone to US Central Time. I don’t click ‘yes’ or ‘no’ because I don’t want it to mess up all my past and future calendar entries.
My current calendar workflow is as follows:

Avatar 3D Movie Review

Saturday, February 20th, 2010

After months of deliberation, I finally went to see “Avatar” in 3D at a movie theatre in the United States. (Rachel basically had to drag me there. Heh.)
Prior to seeing the movie I didn’t go out looking for reviews; they came to me via Twitter. Dave Winer’s review is the only one that I can [...]

Why won’t I be in Sydney? Well, I’m moving to America!
I really want to catchup and hang out with anyone that I haven’t seen in years or even months, so I’m dedicating this weekend to you.
Yes, [...]

Don’t add the ‘Photas’ app on Facebook

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Rah! I seem to be using Facebook less and less over the past year.
I don’t ‘poke’ anyone anymore (I used to love doing that), I don’t upload photo albums anymore (I use PixelPipe to distribute my mobile photos to photo sharing websites, such as Facebook), and I don’t usually strike up a conversation with friends/fans [...]
