Google Calendar on the way?

by Jordan Running Sep 30th 2005

What's next for Google? Many people are now saying that it's definitely Google Calendar. As Brad at the Unofficial Google Weblog noted, GCalendar.com was recently purchased by a domain holding company which Google frequently utilizes, and Google Blogoscoped is reporting that the subdomain calendar.google.com is live, though currently pointing to the main Google search page. If Google could do for web-based calendars what it did for webmail (not to mention the innovation it spurred among its competitors), I would be delighted.

A calendar paired up with GMail is exactly what I've been waiting for...

Me too. Now that Google has the customizable home page, a calendar is all I need to drop Yahoo.

Civiballs is a beautiful, soothing physics puzzle Time Waster

I have an absolute weakness for physics games, and while Civiballs isn't the strongest physics-based game, what it lacks in the physics department it makes up for a few times over in style and fun.

In Civiballs, you are presented with a few colored balls, and your goal is to get those balls into the same-colored urn on the level. The "civi" part of Civiballs is that there are 3 sets of levels to play, each representing a different civilization. While the civilization doesn't affect gameplay, the artwork for each level is beautifully themed to it's appropriate era.

To play the game, you are given only one tool - a sword with which to cut the chains that are holding the balls. The puzzle part of the game is in figuring out what order, and with what timing to cut each chain. Do it right, and all the right balls end up in the right urns, with no stray balls entering an urn (a no-no). Do it wrong, and you get to start over again.

Civiballs is not terribly deep on gameplay; the entire game can be completed in about 15 minutes. But if you enjoy this type of game, it will be a very enjoyable 15 minutes.
