Chronos Releases SOHO Organizer 6.0
Park City, Utah - May 29, 2007 -- Chronos LC today announced the release of
SOHO Organizer 6.0, a MAJOR upgrade to its personal and business
productivity suite. SOHO Organizer is designed for both individual and
workgroup use and this latest upgrade makes sharing calendars easier than
ever. SOHO Organizer 6.0 is a $49.99 upgrade for registered SOHO Organizer
5.x users.
According to Robert McCullough, V.P. of Development at Chronos, "SOHO
Organizer 6 is the most CONNECTED organizer available for Macintosh. Not
only can you share calendars among co-workers using SOHO Organizer, but you
can publish and subscribe to calendars on the Internet. Plus, it is the
first Mac information manager to support CalDAV, which is just starting to
come onto the scene strong."
MAJOR NEW FEATURES
* Publish Calendars. Users can publish their calendars on the Internet so
others can view them using SOHO Organizer or Apple's iCal. Publishing
calendars lets other people see what the publisher is doing or when the
publisher is busy or free.
* Subscribe To Calendars. Users can subscribe to calendars that others have
published on the Internet including calendars containing the schedules of
popular sport teams, concert schedules, etc.
* CalDAV Support--Industry First. Users can use CalDAV to publish
calendars, events, and tasks on the Internet and then collaborate on them
with others. CalDAV is an open standard calendar access protocol
(read/write access)that allows access to calendars that are in the popular
iCalendar format over the WebDAV extensions to the HTTP protocol.
* Import/Export vCal Files. Users can import and export calendar data in
the industry-standard vCal format. vCal files are easily transmitted
between computers and provide a quick and easy way to transfer calendar
data between different applications.
