- Paper based calendars
- Electronic calendars (on your computer - outlook, etc.)
- Online calendars
- (and a task list, which could possible be categorized the same way again)
- Work laptop
- Home laptop #1 (at home)
- Home laptop #2 (with my girlfriend currently located in a different city)
- Apple iPhone
- Nokia N82
- Blackberry Pearl
- (Google Calendar - not really electronics..but still)
All the laptops sync together in two ways:
- Mobileme
- Backup/sync hard drive big enough to hold all of this data and sync it all as well
- iPhone synced to laptop #1 and mobile me
- Gcal to sync laptop #1 and laptop #2 to gcal
- mobileme syncs all laptops (including the work laptop) and the iPhone
- Blackberry pearl used for local backup of contacts and calendars
- iPhone and N82 sync'd through laptop #1
- N82 also backed up on laptop #2 and work laptop
So, how does all of this happen? Do I sit and sync it one-by-one... obviously not! I have it set up such that if I connect my phones to my computer, everything starts synchronizing automatically, and its setup to do so only between 1 and 4AM. Thus, every morning, all of this is synced. The last part of this is that if I need to change anything in my calendar, its typically done on google calendar .. this way, I can access it on all my devices until everything is sync'd.
Now, the last part - my task list .. I am still struggling with this... not sure how to handle this .. so here are my issues:
- iPhone has a task list application (downloadable) but needs to be sync'd with its own web server (completely isolated)
- N82 syncs with Outlook, BB Pearl (through Outloook) & mobileme - this is good.. but still cant get my tasks on the iPhone or on google calendar (or gmail for that matter)
Hit me up on the comments and let me know what you guys use and if you have anything as complex as this.
