I think that the point is that this information, your friends/clients/whatever, could potentially be hacked and sold. I don’t think it’s an issue that they’re going to start stalking you or anything… more that they could start sending your unsolicited information, selling your information to other companies, etc.

I reckon it’s really way cool and well done. Microsoft are way behind now…

So nice to be able to invite family and friends simply.

I would like a desktop G Calendar button that would be nice and/or mege with G Mail.

Privacy issues? Unless it’s top secret there should be no issues???

Well done Google.

In order to manage your invitations, when you invite other people to Calendar events, we collect and maintain information associated with those invitations, including email addresses, dates and times of the events, and any responses from guests.

What exactly is wrong with that statement?
How else are they supposed to organise and corellate invited events? Voodoo??

Ha! Then a YPN rep will walk by with a Poster Board full of VOIP and PaymyBills.com advertisements.

Hmmm… just what would Google want with my ‘event’ info?

Where I live?

Where I eat?

Which types of restaurants I invite friends to?

Which types of coffee houses I use for meetings?

Wonder if next time I’m meeting with someone at Tully’s Coffee about a search engine marketing campaign if a Google AdWords representative will walk up to the table and hand my prospective client their card and a $50 coupon.

Or better yet, be standing outside the window with Coffee or SEM AdSense Ads printed on a sheet of poster board!
