Organize Meetings Easily

So you need to set up a conference call with several busy folks and, over email at least, the group has come to an impasse about which half hour over the next week fits in best to everyone's schedules.

Majority rules. 43 Folder's Merlin Mann—no slouch when it comes to productivity matters—claims that turning the organization over to a computer also has another, hidden plus: no one can be blamed for failing to accommodate a particular person's schedule.
