Good scheduling software

Organichu

Hey guys.

I'm looking for good software to schedule appointments, set reminders, etc. I'm on Windows. Is Outlook the best it gets? It seems really clunky, memory intensive etc.

I'm looking for these features:

- Set recurrent events (like a job)

- Not memory intensive, easy to pop off and on in an instant.

- Slick, minimalistic UI.

I really like Outlook 2007's changes compared to 2003, but then again work refreshes my hardware on a regular basis so I don't notice memory use and it's always open for me.

Have you tried Google calendar?

You could try Mozilla's Sunbird.

Thanks guys. I tinkered around with both at your suggestions, and Sunbird seems really good so far.

I appreciate it.

If you're interested: Mozilla makes a plugin called the "Provider for Google Calendar" where you can setup Sunbird/Lightning to sync with Google Calendar. If you don't need that I understand, but I was like a kid at Christmas when I found said extension. I can now keep my workstation, laptop, and phone all synced with my events.

Rainlendar is great for the free version, and the pay version has some extended features you might use.
