Ever since I first got into PDAs back in 2000, it’s been really important to me to be able to keep track of my contacts’ birthdays. When I got my Pocket PC (basically Windows for PDAs), I loved that it automatically placed birthdays on my calendar. But since then, I haven’t had a solution that would flawlessly do this.

Today, I discovered that Google Calendar does this exact thing! And since I sync my calendar with my Android phone, I get the birthdays placed on my phone’s calendar too. I absolutely love this feature, but it’s sort of obscure to get to. There are instructions on how to do it at Nicholas Overstreet.
