This would be much more better than creating a local mail reader/local calender which becomes less appropriate daily. (espicailly the calender side, which you basically need to update it from a variety of places if you are a busy person).

I tend to disagree: I want my calendar to be an aggregation of calendar 'feeds', and these feeds may not be publicly available: some may require my personal credentials to access, others might not even be accessible from outside my corporate network at all.

I don't want to trust online webapps with my credentials to external sites - we really need standardized infrastructure to give different webapps *partial* access to your data at other webapps. As for information that's only locally available, web-based offerings are out of luck there entirely.

The technology to do this is largely in place. I hope it will turn into a real usable product soon.
