Welcome to: iCal, the Internet Calendar

iCal is a Calendar/Scheduler that can be used for scheduling meetings, events, vacations, menus, or just about anything else. It's easy to use too: your calendar and all of the entry screens are on the web.

All you do is start running iCal on your computer, and everyone on your Intranet can view your calendar! If you have a permanent Internet connection, then anyone on the web can see your calendar!

You can even let other people make entries in your calendar over the web. This is optional though, you can password protect your calendar so that only certain people can make changes.

If this is your first time using iCal, we suggest you step through the tutorial. In the tutorial, we'll show you how to:
  • bring up different calendars
  • add events to your calendar
  • customize your calendar
  • add security to your calendar
  • create new calendars
