The release of Google’s long awaited Calendar app, codenamed CL2, came a little closer today  when screenshots were leaked onto the web. If reports are to be believed, the calendar will be very closely integrated with Gmail and adhere to standard web 2.0 features, such as Ajax and subscription feeds for integration with other desktop calendars. Other likely (and to some extent obvious) features include event creation, search, sharing and notifications (including SMS). However, rumour also has it that Google is going to attempt to aggregate events like eventful and zvents do, which would give users a large and integrated events database at their finger tips. No news yet on a release date but I wouldn’t expect to see this anytime soon.
