Looking for collaboration software


Question

Why is there not a calendar that will display multiple concurrent events?   I have multiple client files or "events" that begin at the same time.  Whenever I attempt to enter this into google, outlook or any other calendar it is displayed side by side, which after 3 concurrent events, each become so small you can't read the event. I need a calendar that will display those events in a 1 line agenda view within the time cell that increases the height to accommodate the multiple concurrent events. I also need the ability to copy those individual objects and paste them on a new date.  Why is that not available? I have been forced to use a deprecated software called PhoneSlips, which no longer has web access to keep track of everything.  Ideally, I would like to see an app (pc and mobile) that incorporates this type of calendar view with, private and group chat, popup notifications, individual and group contacts, shared individual calendars, dialing and sms capabilities, screen sharing, file sharing, sending of phone messages to individuals, among other things.  Anyone have an idea?

I see what you mean, I just tried it in Microsoft Calendar included with Windows 10 and it puts it side by side for the same time slot, how many concurrent events are we talking because it seems like a unique case here. People aren't normally going to be saving multiple concurrent events in their calendars that they can't attend, are they?

 

Maybe a different kind of management tool needs to be thought of here like ToDo or a list manager that supports dates?

I suppose its a unique situation, but there should still be an option.  See the example where you have a group calendar for the office to keep all the appearances together,  then group all the counties/divisions together in a printable agenda to go along with files where one attorney makes appearances for others in the office and vice versa since 1 attorney can't be in 3 places.  Then be able to copy those calendar objects to a new date and check the old one off as completed.  We all use this ancient program because nothing else does this which is the quickest way of keeping track of all of it.  Some days there are 10x those entries and it just needs to accommodate that.  Attorneys all have this issue and you would think that someone would like to make a couple additions to their software and sell it to attorneys.  Attorneys have money to spend to make their workflow easier, but there's nothing out there.

    • Waymo recalls self-driving software after cars enter closed freeway work zones by Paul Hill Waymo, the self-driving car maker owned by Alphabet – the parent company of Google –, has recalled some of its fifth-generation Automated Driving Systems (ADS). It did so after some of its cars drove through closed construction zones. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), the affected vehicles were capable of driving through a closed freeway construction zone and continuing to drive at speed. The listing on the NHTSA website says that Waymo is currently developing a solution to fix this issue, but in the meantime, freeway driving is being restricted. Waymo will update its ADS software so that vehicles can detect when they can avoid entering construction zones. According to the Safety Recall Report, on April 20, 2026, Waymo’s Field Safety Committee began meetings reviewing an event from April 11, 2026, and five events from April 19, 2026, where Waymo’s autonomous vehicles didn’t recognize and drove past ramp closure signs into the pre-planned freeway construction zones. This took place in Phoenix, Arizona. Separately, on May 18, 2026, seven Waymo vehicles entered freeway lanes with active construction in the San Francisco Bay Area by driving between cones that were placed to show the lane was closed. On the back of both of these events, Waymo restricted freeway driving until it could address the issue. In June, Waymo’s Safety Board reviewed the issue and additional information related to ADS performances around construction zones; then, as a result, it decided to conduct a recall. This development is not good for Waymo as it adds to a growing list of technical hiccups its cars have experienced. Ultimately, it will lead to more scrutiny from lawmakers around the world who will be more cautious about letting autonomous vehicles on their roads without tighter regulation. For readers in areas where Waymo operates, does this news make you more wary about stepping into one of these vehicles?
    • I'm still on Windows 10 22H2 because I didn't want to deal with all the issues in Windows 11, so I waited almost a week before installing the latest Patch Tuesday update (KB5094127), I went ahead and did it, and it was a huge mistake—ever since then, my File Explorer has seen a performance drop of about 30% when transferring large files... Once again, Microsoft has outdone itself! This update cannot be uninstalled, either through the Control Panel (via Settings) or by accessing Advanced Startup Options. The only possible alternative would be to use system restore points, but I’d have to reinstall all app and driver updates (and there’s no guarantee it would work). Or there’s the “nuclear option” of a in-place repair without losing files or apps, but even then, all my customizations would be lost! Microsoft just can’t help but mess everything up! Way to go, Microsoft! But I still don’t want your c****y Windows 11!
