Just the other day my best friend got really upset because I forgot to call her on her birthday. Although I do care about these things, this time I simply forgot because I did not fill in my agenda and my monthly calendar with all the celebrations and events that are important for me as I used to. As a consequence I missed all the celebrations this year and I remembered them only too late. So I got to the conclusion that human mind is not that efficient when it comes to remembering all the details we would like to at the exact time when we want to. But if you want to be right on schedule and always the first to remember the important days and events you should use one of these software applications that are so helpful like calendars and organizers.
Now imagine this chaos at a bigger level- when working for a small or big company. If all the events and actions of the company are not carefully planned and announced, you can get the surprise to never meet dead-lines or board meetings or any other important events you must attend. So the best solution is to use Virto Ajax Calendar 3.5.3 and all the worries should be gone.
Virto Ajax Calendar 3.5.3 is actually a web based calendar that allows its users to view all of the events from different SharePoint lists in one single calendar. But in case you want to know why yu should give up your old SharePoint calendar and use this one, I have to mention that Virto Ajax offers some advantages for the users, for example the way in which the events are displayed and also the much easier possibility to edit the events information. So you can choose to have all the events in a certain week displayed for example or in a certain day, or all events belonging to a certain type of action and so on. You can add such an event to the calendar with a simple click of the mouse and you can choose the right color for it depending on its character. You are the only one to establish the color code, so use your imagination and do it.You can make all the necessary changes and adjustments by simply using the drag and drop feature or selecting the right date in the available calendar.
As you can see from these two screenshots, the interface is very simple and easy to use and the instructions are very clear, so you have no chance to make mistakes. You simply pick a date and you will see all the events for the day displayed in front of you. If you want to edit an event and change the duration maybe you simply click the window and drag its margins and the colored segment will show you the estimated period of time.
You can use this calendar for publishing it on your company’s web site or on the intranet , so you should know its size can be adjusted to do that. Choose the views you prefer and list the events for the day or for the week and print them or email them to the ones directly interested. If you do all these and respect all the events in the calendar you will certainly have one successful company. The only things you should take care of are the use of Internet Explorer 7 and two more software applications you need installed on your computer if you want to be able to also use Virto Ajax Calendar: Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services v3 or Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Microsoft .NET Framework. The developer, VirtoSoftware.com, offers it as a demo for free download or enter here and choose the right software package for you.11
