Basecamp<->GoogleCalendar Sync

[Alexey Panteleev]

Hello,

 Just collecting some feedback here:

BC has recently announced that they now have multiple-calendar view, one calendar for each project and then some additional, like vacations, birthdays, ...

(see http://basecamp.com/calendar)

 Seems very much inline with Google's Calendar

 So we decided to update our calendar sync here, making it synchronize each BC project into a separate Google Calendar.

It just makes more sense to us now to map BC project events to multiple google calendars instead of filing all of them in your "primary" calendar.

 This also solves the issue we had before: not knowing how to allow users to file evets from Google into a specific BC project.
Now it would be really clear, simply file an event into an appropriate project-calendar in Google and that will translate into the right project in BC.

What do you think?

 The two-way cal sync is not available yet but we’re doing all this to prepare for that.

 The first capability of the two-way sync was enabled today.

You can now create new BC events from Outlook or GMail.
