The Mossberg Solution -- Getting Families Synched Up

 Excerpt from no-subscription-required version of the column

This week I tested Cozi Central ( www.cozi.com), a free, downloadable calendaring program from Cozi Group Inc. that works on most Windows PCs, not just expensive new computers that hog kitchen-counter space. Cozi offers a built-in family messaging system, and shopping or to-do lists that the whole family can edit. Starting today, Cozi also automatically synchronizes with Microsoft Outlook calendars, allowing work events to be considered in the family calendar and vice versa. Plus, it can be used well beyond just the family Windows PC. It has a Web-based version, so family members can use it from a browser on any computer, anywhere -- even a Macintosh. And it will send schedules and shopping lists to your cellphone via text messages or through an audible text-to-speech program.
