My DynaCal - Powerful New Communication Features on the Way!

We've been working hard at more communication features to help you get connected and stay connected!

Our newest release, a major upgrade to our existing "My DynaCal" function, is expected to be in place by Monday morning, April 28th. 

The new My DynaCal function adds 3 powerful new communication features! 

1. Users will now create an account by providing an email address and a password.  This will allow them to view their personalized calendars from any computer - instead of just the one they created their personalized calendars on.
2. Users will be able to request Email and Text Alerts for their personalized calendars!  When events are cancelled, postponed or rescheduled in DynaCal, My DynaCal users will be automatically notified by email and / or text message!  Also, any postings made to a Communication Category (like Cancellations, Assignments, or Announcements) will be automatically sent to My DynaCal users by email and / or text message.
3. Finally, we've added My DynaCal access to our Mobile site.  So now My DynaCal users can access their personalized My DynaCal calendars on their mobile phones!  (Unfortunately for My DynaCal users, there are now no more excuses for missing your events! :-)

The First Release of 2008 is Up and Running!

New Public Calendar features have been put in place. We've added new navigation - by Departments and Schools - to make it easier for your Public Calendar visitors to find the events they are looking for.  We've added 2 new Category types; Cancellations and Assignments.  These new Category types, along with our existing Announcement Category type, are now highlighted on the Public Calendar with a new navigation section called "Communications".  And finally, we've totally revised our search function and made it available in the top / right corner of all calendar pages.

Thanks for all your feedback, we welcome your suggestions for improvement.  Stay tuned for our next round of additions coming soon!
