Hey folks!

I can’t believe how long it’s been since I posted, but it’s all with good reason… We’ve had our heads down, cranking out the next release of FuseCal, which is set to come out on February 1. This will include some new features, which I’ll tell you more about soon, as well as a bunch of under-the-hood improvements to make everything faster and more stable. Many thanks to everyone who has already taken FuseCal for a spin and given us feedback… I hope you’ll like what we’ve been cooking up!

On a side note, I’m very interested in talking to folks who build web mashups. Bonus points if they use any event data, and/or you live around Providence. (Note: Points not redeemable for cash.) Drop me a line if you’d like to talk shop.

Our friend Jack Templin over at RI Nexus has been kind enough to feature our screencast of FuseCal’s publisher tools.

Incidentally, the RI Nexus calendar is probably the best source of tech sector events in the greater Providence area.  So, after you read about us on their blog, you might just want to pipe their site into FuseCal… how meta is that?

What more exciting time is there for a calendar enthusiast than the start of a brand new year? Those of you still stuck in the Paper Age have crisp new wall calendars and day planners to break in. And let’s not ignore the stack of daily vocabulary words or Dilbert cartoons that may have just materialized on your desk.

Good stuff, no question.

But what of techies like us? Folks who rely on electronic calendars? We might not need to restock any paper goods, but that doesn’t mean that now isn’t the perfect time to kick your scheduling up a notch. Unless you’re already getting everything done that you set out to do, then this may be the year to resolve to improve your Calendar Fu.  (At least, Mark Hopkins at Mashable seems to think so…)

Think about it: your other resolutions are only as good as your ability to execute on your plans.  Why not make the pursuit of schedule mastery a top priority in 2008?
