Doodle - a brilliant idea!
I don't remember how I found it (it's been a couple days since I read about it somewhere), but I'm glad I did.
What a great little tool on the web: Doodle.
The two things you can do here are 1) polls and 2) schedule meetings.
You might wonder why this should be something really special...
Here goes my reasoning:
- it's dead easy to set up
- clutter-free design
- no sign-up required
- "back" and "forward" buttons work like they should - meaning the app remembers your choices
- ....
o.k. these are all more or less standard features (or at least they should be!).
But the real power of this little program is the scheduling function.
Have you ever tried to get a couple of people (who don't work in the same company and use Lotus or Outlook) to agree on one date / time?
It's a hassle, I can tell you.
Well, this tool solves this problems in a really nice and easy way!
Check out the example below:

Good stuff!

Try www.scheduleonce.com - find a time for any meeting with absolute accuracy anywhere in the world. As simple as doodle but has more features.
yael,
thanks for the comment and pointing me to www.scheduleonce.com.
It's a great tool - really liked the design of the page and the ease of use!
I believe that especially for a business use it's a really great tool (different time zones are a real problem here, I can tell you!).
I'll try to use it in my company - let's see what the feedback is!
The one thing I believe Doodle has an advantage in is making choices. One example: I'll be heading to LIFT conference on Tuesday and we tried to choose a venue (and a time) for our pre-conference drinks.
But - like I already said - will definitely try scheduleonce at work!
