Tungle and calendar coordination

Setting up meetings with people within and outside your own organization has always been a pain.  Trying to find a common time usually involves a flurry of emails moving around the group and eventually finding that there is NO date and time where EVERYBODY can attend. That takes time.

Personally I don't believe there is a great solution for this problem since it almost requires everyone to be on the same system, on line at the same time and ready to respond.  Right, like that's going to happen often.

Recently I found   and think this has potential.  Jim Courtney's Skype Journal post gave a great explanation of the Outlook add-in product and its value. The great thing about this product is that it is agnostic to calendar systems though the organizer must currently be using Outlook.

The process is to share a set of open times, people select their preferences and finally once everyone enters their preferences, the "best" time is selected.

Try it, you'll like it.
