Byte of the Week

Today’s Byte is short and sweet. It’s a very cool, one-purpose tool.

It’s a simple tool that helps you schedule meetings or dates with a small group of people. 1) Go to Doodle. 2) Create a poll that lists possible times to meet. 3) A web site will be created for you. 4) Send the web site address to your friends or colleagues. When your friends visit the site they will see if anyone has already responded with their available times and they will have an opportunity to post their available times.

That’s it. As I said it’s one purpose – it just makes it easier to find a time to get folks together. But it can save a lot of hassles of tracking times by phone or even email.
