As a leading-edge, early-adopter techno-Earth-muffin type, patience hasn’t been my cultivated strength. But I’m starting to wonder if it wouldn’t make a good decade-long project, to see if just waiting for things to get built by other people isn’t a better approach. I could spend my newfound time whipping up a tasty snack, reading some of the books waiting on my shelf, or noticing how beautiful the sky is.

I would *really* like it if there was a calendaring application available to use instead of Outlook, with a simple and enjoyable rich web interface, where the data was stored someplace safe (my server, maybe someone else’s), and it was smart enough that I can pass vcal and ical data to it for import. Am I willing to sit down and start writing it now?

I think I’m going to try waiting and see what happens.
