#32I tried both FireFox and Chrome and I'm not actually seeing the calendar. Is there no screenshots or demo or anything?

#34A few years ago, I thought I'd try to redesign the calendar (as these guys seem to want to do). My innovation was integrating a timeline navigation to allow you to easily animate between months and years. Plus, loads of visual customisation options.

#39Do that many people hate the Outlook calendar? I like it (maybe a bit less in OWA, but honestly it's pretty much the same). Appointments show up, meeting rooms are pre-populated, I can see when other people are busy when writing an invite and move the meeting (or reconsider if it needs to happen at all).
