Fantastical. It’s OS X-only but I suspect the Windows crowd would get a kick out of it as well.

I’ve been using a pretty cool app of late called Fantastical. It’s OS X-only but I suspect the Windows crowd would get a kick out of it as well.

Basically it’s a natural language calendar app. You can paste (nearly) anything into its little window and it will automagically create an event. “Dinner with Joe at 5pm on Thursday” works just as you would imagine it would and unless today is Thursday, Fantastical will figure things out. It fumbles sometimes with word order and ends up setting all day lunches with “Tuesday” but most of the time that’s reparable with a few keystrokes.

i saw kevin rose used this app on diggnation , and its really cool ... but i went to the google calendar on windows , and i found out it can do the same thing ....
