Calgoo releasing Version 1.0 this week

by Chris Gilmer Jun 25th 2007

The heat is on once again in the online calendar sector. It seemed like the news was always pumping out on this front late last year, then things cooled down shortly after Calgoo announced it could sync with Google Calendar. Well, Calgoo has announced that they are hitting the big time with Version 1.0 this week.

DownloadSquad has covered Calgoo since its inception, and followed its progress along the way. It's all grown up now, and ready to get out of beta and help users keep calendar schedules clean and uncluttered. The new version will get released this Wednesday, when users can experience all of these new features:

Outlook and Google Synchronization
Redesign of calendar views
Redesign of content management system
Redesign of setup and calendar wizards
Redesign of application icons, buttons and layouts
Microsoft Outlook contact syncing
Agenda view printing
Sample calendars
Improved performance

Look out for a review of the new Calgoo from DownloadSquad when it gets released.

Check out some screenshots of the new Calgoo V1.0 Interface.

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.
