With the help of Google, your calendar in Outlook for Windows 2010 can easily fly off your desktop to the web, iOS, Android and Windows Phone. Painfully short.Ĭalendar is a sad example of this. When it comes to syncing other data that users create and store in Outlook, the program falls short on the Mac-side. For now, the point is that when it comes to syncing email, Outlook loves the cloud. In a future column, I'll explain exactly why Outlook (either for Windows or Mac) is a perfect paring with Gmail, especially for its excellent offline support and the easy ability to open and manage multiple email windows. No, I'm not crazy (but if you love Gmail's web interface, more power to you).
