What do you mean by "full synchronization"? Currently Google Calendar can display Sandy's events as part of it's schedule (via iCal feed) or as part of Sandy's Gcal gadget (which is very similar to the Remember The Milk gadget). By "full synchronization" do you mean that you want things added in Google Calendar to show up in Sandy?

Elizabeth,
There are at least 2 different types of feeds, the Calendar Feed and the Daily Digest Feed (i.e. the Google Calendar Gadget). (see http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy...)
The "Daily Digest" feature (the Sandy icon) is available for every day. Some people have complained that the icon appears on every day, even on those days where there is nothing scheduled. However, these people didn't understand that the Google Calendar Gadget has a different purpose and is not a regular calendar feed. Instead it implements the Daily Digest feature.
I know that there is a delay in the Calendar Feed. Google updates the calendar feed about every 3 hours, (or longer). There have been many discussions about Google Calendar not updating feeds promptly and people unsubscribing and resubscribing the get it to update. Look at some of the links on the right or do a search. (Other links: http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy... and http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy... and http://getsatisfaction.com/iwantsandy...) I'm not sure now often the "Daily Digest" feature is updated.

What about the development of a general web-based user interface for editing? LIke where you could click and remove and add items from the website? I really like the flexibility that I can use email and sms, but I would like it coupled with the convenience of a simple, visual user interface available online that requires no memory of commands or power moves.

Am I the only one still having issues? When I set it up as a calendar feed, it's not updating. i.e. the events I had when I set up the feed are there, but that's it. If i set it up with the thing from the sandbox, it puts the face on EVERY day and doesn't integrate the information in anyway. It just puts the two seperate bits of information within the same browser window.
Am I just totally missing something??

Eek! I'll check into it right away. Could you please email help@iwantsandy.com with your details so I can check on your account?
I've only seen this happen 3 times (see above) and each time it was a very odd quirk without much rhyme or reason. But we'll get it sorted.

Rael,
I had this problem the other night. Suddenly Sandy started sending my daily reminders and only stopped when I maxxed out the 250 tweets per month to my mobile phone! I couldn't do anything about it as I was on holiday away from a computer at the time so had to switch of phone (was middle of night). Luckily I don't think my mobile carrier charges for overseas text receipt (I was in Rome for my birthday!).
Just wondering if it was a problem to others too?!
Cheers,
Chris

You could sort them on normal Sandy front page by using the "Customise" option top right of the daily digest white "page" (i.e. not top of web page, just white area where sandy writes the digest).
In there you can opt to separate out certain tags and they separate out in the order you type them so typing
@1 @2 @3 @4 @5 @Todo @shopping @work etc etc etc
Produces
@1
Pay X
Do Y
@2
Sort out B
@3
Ring Z
etc etc
Also uses this sort in your emailed Daily Digest
For multiple tags you get them in full for the first tag they match then a note at the end of the other tags e.g.
@todo
Do gardening

I have the same problem with Orange UK too. Twitter is an ok work around for now but I'd much rather be directly interacting via sms with Sandy. – RichiRich, on June 15, 2008 22:09

Thanks, the printing from the website works great! I'd still like to get the email in weekly format; it would save me time going to the website to do the printing. Thanks! – Betsy True, on June 02, 2008 10:33

Hi DMee,
Today's email issue seems to have kept Sandy (and me) occupied enough that she didn't get to her tweets. She's catching up now and should be back to her snappy self in just a few minutes.
I'm truly sorry Sandy's not been at her best today; we're working hard behind the scenes to make sure that she's able to both handle her workload and let us know when she needs some additional help.

waffles replied on May 21, 2008 17:44 to the question "Is there a way to get "this week" calendar in daily digest?" in I want Sandy:
For me, the big thing would be seeing the next X number of days and everything that goes with those days. That might get me to forget the milk. Get it... Well, I thought it was funny....
But on the serious side of things again, what would be even better would be if certain tags would go ahead a different number of days. For example, I can have @classwork show the next 5 days, @work show the next 3 days, stuff like that. Some things I don't need to know as far in advance.
That's really the only functional thing I can think of, but I can think of one pretty big cosmetic change that could prove to be functional as well; alternating row colors.
It would make things so much easier to scan if the rows alternated colors. It wouldn't need to anything so dramatic as black to yellow backgrounds, just something where it's obvious when scrolling through the email.
