I am a bit old to be worrying about the sort of family planning you might be thinking about, but I am sure a little coordination between my family members through the use of a shared calendar wouldn't go astray.
For as far back as I can remember, we have always had a calendar hanging on the wall in the kitchen. Occasionally someone would add an event or activity, but it was always outdated or missing critical events. The other issue is that you need to be in the kitchen to see what activities are happening. I am sure that an online shared calendar that all the family have access to would make a big difference.
How hard could it be to get everyone in the family to share details of any family activity to the family calendar in this digital age? If I am going to digitally transform my family to a shared calendar experience, then adding an event, and sharing it with others, needs to be quick and straightforward.
The hardest part of this task is not the technology, it will be the change management. Getting the family to add an event will be a good start, and I will see how that goes.
