One of my personal sticking points for keeping my online life totally synced is now one step closer to being easier–Google Calendar now supports CalDAV and can sync natively with OS X’s iCal without a third-party add-on. But there’s a huge hitch–as of now, I see no way to sync events created on my iPhone back into a Google Calendar, as you can’t create an event in a CalDAV calendar directly on the iPhone. Damn, almost there–looks like I can’t throw out BusySync just yet. But if you’ve found away around this limitation, please share in the comments. So close! [Lifehacker]
You know how your iCal icon in the dock always shows July 17 until you actually start up the app? Did you know why? It’s because July 17 is the date that iCal premiered at MacWorld 2002, which technically makes today its “birthday.” (Development time would then be its gestation period.) Here’s another interesting fact. Do you know why the iPhone displays 9:42 as the time in all its TV ads?
