"Review: BusyCal 2.0 remains superior to Apple's Calendar" Wow, don't you think that headline is a bit subjective. Nothing wrong with being subjective, most of us are. It just seems more of an opinion piece rather than a review. ... Reviews _are_ opinion pieces.


I stand corrected sir! In the future anytime I see the word "Review" on this site and elsewhere, I will translate that to mean "this person's opinion."

Up until now when I've seen the word Review as part of a headline, I've always expected more than just "this person's opinion." It seems likely my expectations are set too high.

Cheers!

A table is what distinguishes objectivity from subjectivity? And a review is not inherently subjective?

Are you joking?

I'm very disappointed that you can no longer choose the amount of time to snooze events. That was a big advantage with the previous version. Yes, this is a show stopper for me. I am very surprised it wasn't mentioned in the review. Anyone have a workaround or alternative?

This is not true, at least as of v2.04 - if you use the BusyCal alarm instead of Notification Centre. But that was true of v.1.6 as well.
