These
elements include to-do lists and calendars. This section takes a look at your options.
Evolution Calendar
Evolution is a complete personal information manager, with calendar and task (to-do)
lists. You can convert email messages to either events or tasks, if you need to.
You can import calendars, from other individuals and from the Web, into Evolution. The
calendar supports the iCal standard developed by Apple and the emerging webCAL standard.
Visit http://icalshare.com to see user-contributed calendars on assorted topics, from
holidays and history to local Linux User Group calendars. To import a calendar from
iCalShare into Evolution, right-click on the Subscribe link on the website and copy the
link to the clipboard. In Evolution, open the calendar and select New Calendar from the
toolbar or File menu.
Choose On the Web from the Type drop-down menu, and then paste your copied address
in the URL box (delete the default text in this box first). Name the Calendar, give it an
identifying color, and decide how often you want to update it (every 30 minutes is the
default, but this is probably overkill for the US Holidays calendar, among others).
