It has been too long since we’ve featured awesome Web 2.0 apps here on the Splashtop blog. We got all caught up on events and awards. This week I want to get back to our roots and our core message.

Splashtop gets you to your favorite web applications seconds after you hit the power button.

That’s what we’re about. So when I see a great new Web app I’ve got to give it a shout out. Last week I was introduced to a great new application called Presdo. Someone called it “deceptively simple.” Why deceptive? Because it’s a very powerful application. I get very excited when I see a powerful app in a simple package.

This is the basic interface:

Let’s say I type in “have the product meeting with Sergei at 3pm”

This is what I get:

It naturally interprets what you’re trying to do and then provides everything you would need to do with that event. It can email Sergei to let him know. If I provide the basic location it’ll map it for me. If I need a cafe, it’ll suggest it for me. Finally, if I need to export it to another calendar like google calendar or outlook, it’ll make it happen pretty seamlessly. It makes calendaring events kinda fun, actually. It just goes to show you that you don’t need all that desktop software when you have a fully functional web browser.

Take 2 minutes and give Presdo a try. You might just find a new way to calendar all of your events. I’ve been using it a week and I’m hooked.
