How do you arrange your Calenders ?

[Philgr]

I have always had trouble in keeping a managed calender.

the release of Mobileme and iphone 2.0 it finally seems like i can get my act together.

i currently have a work calender in Outlook and my iCal calender, and Mobileme and a iphone, i have access to my iCal thru mobile me and my work calender through exchange, its the first time i have managed to have my calender on the move and its great

But how do you guys manage your ical calenders, im finding i am creating a new calender for anything. and duplicating entries on my work and my ical.

can you guys give me some suggestions on how to manage a home calender and a work calender

Thanks in advance

I have 7 calendars:

• Home
• Work
• School
• Kingdom of Loathing (a game I play)
• Private
• ...and two others that I don't use anymore, and should probably delete.

As for managing your calendars, I think that it helps to come up with a sensible grouping system - for example, if you tend to create more calendars than you actually need, find event groups that logically go together. A good example: You're part of a family of 3, and keep track of everyone's appointments. You could have 1 calendar for yourself, and 1 each for the 2 other people in the family. If you need more granularity than that, you can make calendar folders.

It must be a bit of an annoyance having one calendar in Outlook, and the other in iCal...

I think I pretty much organise mine like a lot of other people:
Home
Uni - timetable
- exams
- general
Money
Work

I sometimes struggle to keep it 100% up to date, I usually end up spending a while doing it all in one go about every week.
