Windows Calendar is a calendar application that is included in Windows Vista. It natively supports the iCalendar file format, and has the ability to publish and subscribe to web-based calendars by using HTTP and WebDAV. Calendars may also be published to network drive shares.
Windows Calendar has several calendar views, including Day, Week (5 and 7 day) and Month, and also supports Tasks. Windows Calendar supports over 100 calendars for each user.
Windows Calendar has received criticism for bearing some resemblance to iCal.1 Another issue is that Windows Mobile Device Center synchronizes with the Outlook calendar instead of Windows Calendar.2
Windows Calendar can be extended using the APIs included with the CF4 Developer kit.
