Scheduleworld now provides automatic Google Calendar synchronization
September 19th, 2006
With the latest announcement from scheduleworld it is possible to have automatic calendar synchronization between a standard cell phone and Google Calendar.
This news finally ads something resembling syncml compatibility to the list of possible ways to Synchronize Google Calendar.
In practicality this means, that one can access and edit the Google Calendar from any computer, and have it synchronize with the cell phone calendar anywhere by a few clicks on the cell phone.

Dear folks
I have signed up for this ScheduleWorld service some days ago and just one day later I had to notice that someone got unauthorized access to my ScheduleWorld account via syncML. I realized that due to the fact that a new SyncML Device has been added to the list in the preferences section:
This is the original reference in the preferences:
“SyncML Device IMEI:0E100065BB8BEF5 ( Auto-added ) :”
As you might see above the device is a mobile phone.
This person should have known my password and account ID cause …
– neither have I told anyone that I have this new account
– nor have I synced it via a mobile phone cause I haven’t any mobile phone!
I am really upset and concerned about this!
I requested a comment/statement from the ScheduleWorld team via a prior posting in the ScheduleWorld forum with the consequence that my posting has been just deleted. No comment, no statement. And this makes me really concerned!
So dear users it’s up to you to make up your own opinion about this security issue!!!

Hi all,
I have posted 3 times in the ScheduleWorld forum with security critical questions, e.g. requesting more details of the company “ScheduleWorld”. in my opinion a simple imprint would be fine and a min. requirement.
Consequence was that my postings has been deleted every time and my account has been also deleted.
Is this normal?! This seems not really trustworthy to me

[...] Some time ago Tech Tag received two very critical comments on two posts about Scheduleworld (post 1, post2). Then a few weeks later the pattern repeated it self. Two identical comments where posted on the same two post, but from a different IP. [...]
