here, are my thoughts, brief and in no particular order:

Gigs Calendar (v0.4.6)
- issues with timestamps posted to the future (but not with filter turned on)
- no multi-day events
- post created automatically

GigPress (v1.4.9)
- lots of setting (maybe too many)

Events Manager (v2.0rc2)
- not creating “real” WP posts (with post IDs)
- all event posts are on same page (eg: domain.com/events?events_id=1)

Events Calendar (v6.5.2.1)
- simple / good
- fills in actual post content

Events (v2.1.1)
- not creating “real” WP posts (with post IDs)

Event Calendar (v3.1.4)
- just adds dates and times to the edit posts screen

Calendar (v1.2.2)
- buggy (widget seems broken)
- not creating “real” WP posts (with post IDs)

Keep in mind, i’ve only tested these specific versions of each plugin. So, newer versions might include significant improvements over previous versions. Also, don’t take my word for it.. test them all out for yourself ;)

This is just another small round up of Web 2.0 softwares that i can think of off the top of my head. Hopefully, i haven’t forgotten too many, but it’s only getting harder and harder to keep up with all these new sites and services. So i am going to try and keep this list updated as new web based services spring up to fill this relatively new market. Any suggestions for web-based softwares i may have overlooked are welcome.

The 3 main areas of the traditional Office Desktop Suite are: Word Processor, Spreadsheet, and Calendar. Some would argue that Presentation software (like PowerPoint) should be included in there somewhere, i’m just not one of them.

The modern Web-based Desktop equivalents are:

Word Processors -

Spreadsheets -

Calendars -
