Ten years later, Yahoo Finally updates its Calendar

The Outlook look-alike is based on Zimbra (acquired by Yahoo last year) and features the following:
  1. Drag & drop interface.
  2. Layering (view multiple calendars in different colors or subscribe to someone else’s calendar)
  3. Zoom in when adding an event or appointment
  4. Integration with Flickr
  5. Can set email, IM or SMS reminders.
  6. To-Do list.
The stock is trading low, employees are jumping ship but I must admit that it's good to see Yahoo trying to outdo Google Calendar. You can sign up for Yahoo Calendar beta @ http://switch.calendar.yahoo.com/m/landing.php

Now if they could just give the rest of the site a face lift i.e. see the 1990's style http://dir.yahoo.com and get their ad technology to work properly.
