I’ve tried a variety of electronic devices for my calendar. Palm Pilot, cell phone, iCal on my Mac. And I do use iCal and Google calendar somewhat consistently. So why do I carry a small weekly calendar in my bag?

I am so spoiled. Where we live, we have a cable modem. It’s easy to take that nice, fast connection for granted.
