I am looking for a good website that has a family calendar on that both me and my husband could access and could also email us reminders. We have calendars on our phones, our wall at home, at work, but nowhere do we have something that has ALL EVENTS on it. Does anyone know of such a thing?
we don't have iphone/ipads. We both have blackberrys, but they aren't good for much other than email and phone calls.
thanks!
cozi.com is good for my family. you can access online via computer and/or download apps for other devices like blackberrys. It will text you reminders and send an email with a weekly calendar.
Google Calender! It's awesome.
Yahoo Calendar works well for us.
We also use Cozi and I love it!
My husband and I use Google calendar.
We use a family calendar through Cozi and I love it. It sends out weekly reminders (like the entire weekly schedule) but you might be able to set it to send daily or other reminders. You'll need to use a regular computer to set up the calendar and input events and if you do get an iPhone, there's an App to access it too.
How funny you posted this! I just signed up for Cozi, it seems really neat and is very easy to use!
google calendar. it can be synced with your blackberries
We use Google calendar. Lifesaver!
I use both the Google calendar and Cozi. I update the Google calendar for whomever the activity is for. I have separate calendars for my personal schedule, work schedule, one each for my two boys, one for birthdays, one for school events, one for bills, and one for the school lunch menu, etc. I have them synched to Cozi so that my boys can access it from their phone or their Kindle. Dad doesn't do the calendar, but has the boys' calendars linked in (none of the others) so he can see when and where their games are. All the calendars are accessible via the web, so you should be able to see it on your Blackberrys.
If each of you have your own calendar/gmail account, you can set it up to share with the other, or you set up a "family" calendar that you share with him and you can set it up so both of you can edit it.
The separate Google calendars can be viewed all at once, or you can filter it to see specific ones.
(Quick fyi, when I update the Google calendar, it takes a while for Cozi to synch the changes.) :(
Also, you should be able to synch your Blackberry calendar with the Google calendar...although it's not really advisable if it is a work Blackberry and it automatically updates your work calendar. :)
google.
it automatically syncs with droid phones
there's an app to have it sync with outlook (my husband is required to use outlook at work).
it will email reminders.
it will alarm on your phone if you have it synced with your phone
each person can be a different color.
if you do an account for each person -then each person will have their own color. although so far, we've just done dad and then me and the kids are all together since I'm the one that does most of the transporting.
bonus - if you have a team sport or something, the team can do a google calendar that you sync into yours as well.
I have my issues with google (they are way too lax on privacy and sharing), but since we have droid phones, it was a no brainer - it's extremely easy and I have everyone's day with me all the time.
note though that I supplement with a white board. every sunday night I write down the week. the kids can see it at a glance and somehow I don't catch conflicts on who's driving whom unless I use the white board.
good luck
gmail
they have a calendar that you can share or not and you choose whom to share it with.
My Husband and I use this.
You and Hubby can input things into the calendar.
It is free.
gmail is free.
You can access it anywhere and it also gives you free email etc.
