I was recently listening to a respected ICT consultant describing Apple’s iCal application as “‘too basic for business” I have come across this a few times with regards Apple products and every time it is meant as a criticism !
You can now use Apple iCal with your Google Calendar, so you can work even when you’re offline, sync almost instantly, respond to invitations from others and see the free/busy data of your friends and coworkers.
A great new TO DO widget has been released this week. To Do is a lightweight and fast widget to manage tasks. Thanks to Mac OS X Leopard it integrates with iCal and Mail. The big advantage: to manage your tasks you don’t have to leave these applications open.
Customizable
Don’t use priorities? Just want to see your work tasks? Don’t want to see completed tasks? Dislike Marker Felt No Problem! “To Do” does it the way you want
Read & Write
With “To Do” you can mark a task as done, set its priority, edit the title and even add new tasks. So, when iCal and Mail are closed, you don’t have to bother opening heavy apps.

Face the day! Always know what’s next on your schedule using iCal Events. iCal Events displays upcoming events from multiple iCal calendars in a beautiful, resizable widget for Dashboard. You can see up to two weeks of upcoming events in the same widget without needing to open iCal. Need more info? Mouse over a calendar color to view the name of the calendar, or mouse over an event’s start time to see when the event ends.
