Synchronize your Google contacts with your cellphone
Looking for an easy way to synchronize your Google Calendar with your cellphone or PDA? GooSync lets you sync your Google data with a ton of different cellphone models as well as Palm and Windows Mobile PDAs.GooSync's been around since last year. But now the company has launched the ability to synchronize Google contacts with your mobile device. Basic calender synchronization is free, while you'll need to sign up for a paid account if you want the contact sync feature.
The paid service will run you £19.95 (or about $40) for 12 months. In addition to contact sync, a paid subscription will get you advanced synchronization options. And eventually the company plans to roll out an automated sync feature for paid users. Right now you have to manually initiate a synchronization from your mobile device.

So, just how good at time waster games are you? Think you've got the stuff? Well, The World's Hardest Game 2.0 doesn't think you do.
Yes, amazingly, it's possible to have a sequel to a game called "The World's Hardest Game". It doesn't seem logically possible, since if the first one was actually the world's hardest, how could another one come along and share the moniker? It made me doubt the name in the first place.

Just tried the free calendar sync on goosync and it worked like a charm with my Nokia 6120 Classic. Thanks for the link!

Goosync just syncs the calendar, not the contacts as this article implies - Goosync has its own contacts manager, but it isn't in sync with Google. This won't be possible until Google release an API for Contacts; to request this feature, star and add a request to issue #25 at http://code.google.com/p/gdata-issues/issues/list?can=2&q=&sort=-stars&colspec=API%20ID%20Type%20Status%20Priority%20Stars%20Summary
