Web Based Community Scheduler
Do you and your spouse need to synchronize your schedules better or more
efficiently? Are you tired of having multiple calendars and
inputting the same data in several schedulers? Check out
http://calendar.yahoo.com
Yahoo has a free sync
program (Intellisync) that works well with Outlook allows you to
keep your address book and calendar in sync with Outlook (and ACT
and Lotus). With Yahoo's tool you can have:
* one shared address book
between several parties so items are being entered twice
* Everyone's up to date
* Enter one place and sync to the others, i.e.: PDA's, Outlook, etc.
* Access to
contacts, calendar, and notes from anywhere in the world as long as
you have a computer
QuickBooks Technically, QuickBooks Pro 2006 looks like they
cleaned up a lot of things we did not like in the original (UI issues,
backend database) - may still be a bit buggy, but that should iron out
over time. Pro will do invoicing, customer letters, etc, pretty much
everything and more. And it is an industry standard.

Software for making ICO files
ICO Files are those little 16x16 pictures that you see in front of your
domain name in the browser address field. You can create your own
file by using Pixeltoolbox 1.1. It's free to download last we
checked.
GreenRide and
RidePro
GreenRide is simple and newer than
RidePro. GreenRide has a basic feature set, and relatively low price.
GreenRide is a relatively new product for a company that has been around
for over 20 years. Customization is possible.
RidePro is sophisticated and can handle
a lot of data, sites, and commuting options. Customizations are not
readily available.
The ROI on a $24K system
could be good. SoCal's Air Quality Management District (AQMD) charges to
companies can add up to hundred's of thousands per year if the companies
rideshare numbers are poor. A company could just pay the cash to the
AQMD, but it doesn't provide the employees with options to do something
positive. As gas prices rise, perceptions and the economics behind such
programs may start to change.
