Scheduling Software

Now you're looking to set up a coworking space and need some type of scheduling software. The following is a listing of applications and spreadsheets templates that can help you get your feet off the ground.

Features	Suggested by
Calendar - month, week, day, hour, half-hour granularity	Elliot
Online - needs to be accessible from the web with no special client install.	Elliot
Resource Scheduling - related to Calendar, should provide a way to book a resource (conference room, quiet room, seat in coworking area)	Elliot
Security - Yeah, we're all nice people, but we might want some user-based security on this.	Elliot
Capacity - resources should have both a capacity (i.e. this conference room will fit 3 people, there is room for 4 in the quiet working room)	Elliot
Social Network - users need online profiles to manage their relationships, and to identify themselves on the calendars, schedules, etc.	Matt Coop

A simple calendar seems like a great start for this type of thing. Google's calendar handles permissions, calendaring, integrates with gmail & news lists, is maintained by a 3rd party, has been reliable so far. I started these two calendars on 2007-02-18 and they're empty unless/until we start filling them in.

We could potentially set up a separate calendar for each resource, store some sort of resource metadata (capacity, etc.) in the Description field of the calendar, set up a stricter security policy than the free-for-all that I set up initially.
