Here’s an interesting approach for displaying calendar events: MooMonth calendar. And here’s a demo to see it in action (make sure you click on a date twice).
It’d have to be on an app that had intense event-scheduling to alleviate the fact that a full-screen calendar might be an overkill solution. Still pretty cool, though. It makes me want to build something with a calendar.

There is so many calender solutions out there, but when do you ever use them in site development other than date input fields. That sort of complexity may come in useful in the future when the majority move their organizer from the deskptop to online. Nice functionality though. Very snazzy :P
Yeah, that’s how I feel. It’s cool and all, but unless I’m building a calendar application, I don’t know how I’d use it. Maybe in some sort of task management app, but I have no reason to build that.
I use Google Calendar, and sometimes I’m frustrated when I have a couple “events” on one day—they get really truncated. It might be cool to use something like this for that situation.
I developed a work and material request system that tracks employees/inventory (for an evil oil company). moomonth let me neatly display requests per day and simplified a shared calendar/training scheduling mod for employees/users. The help for this app is kind of weak right now…but it was fun creating the backend for it in asp and php.
also, this site is cool.
