Now that Outlook.com seems to have its email product sorted,
the folks up in Redmond have turned their attention to that other
popular cloud service: the online calendar. Indeed, Outlook.com has
completely revamped its digital planner, resulting in a clean and fresh
redesign that is reminiscent of the company's other web products.
Overall navigation is said to be more intuitive; for example, adding
and editing events takes just one click, and a day view is presented
just by selecting the date. Features include Exchange ActiveSync
compatibility, integration with social networks like Facebook and LinkedIn, calendar-sharing with friends and family, the ability to import .ics files and more. As you might expect, the design philosophy carries over to the smartphone and tablet side of things as well. While we're not sure if the redesign is enough to woo fans over from its Mountain View counterpart, it's at least a lot easier on the eyes than it was previously. The new look is rolling out slowly starting today and will be available to all users this week.
