#18 Web-based Apps: They're not just for desktops

I like the idea of GoogleDocs and other Web-based applications. My favorite feature in GoogleDocs would have to be the online calendar. Many applications, including email have a built-in calendar which is great if the person you want to shanre the information with is also on your mail server. Google Calendar makes a calendar which is available to anyone (or anyone you wish to share it with). This could be highly useful for groups or families that want to keep a schedule in this oh-so-online-interconnected world.

Another popular product is Basecamp. It is an online project management tool, similar to a wiki in ways, but it allows you to attach documents or proofs of a project and comment and leave notes for the group to follow along.

For a project management solution, I recommend you to take a look at ProjectOffice.net.
It is fairly new on the market and it is Beta. However, ProjectOffice.net is fully functional and offers some extended functionalities, such as project and task management, time and expense management, issue tracking, wikis...

Try it and let us know what you think!

All the best,
