Integrated calendar for Thunderbird

Posted on Friday, June 27, 2008 at 1:25 PM

In this posting I detailed the Mozilla programs Firefox, Thunderbird and Sunbird.

Since then Firefox version 3 has been release, and a new integrated calendar and task list for Thunderbird call Lightning - it runs as an addon. This is much better than Sunbird which does not integrate with Thunderbird.

If you are using Sunbird, the Reminderfox extension for Thunderbird, or any other program than can export data to an ics file then you can import them into Lightning very easily.

Altogether a great addition to the Mozilla range.

The Lightning home page is situated here .

NOTE. If you want some great Thunderbird (and Firefox) addons which are NOT on the Mozilla site see this site. I particularly like the one which enables changing the quote and reply format. Do check it out.
