google calendar

right now is exactly why i question the benefit of putting your data in “the cloud”.  working on scheduling something with a friend for the week by my google calendar is not responding…  urg.

anyone else having these issues.  i’ve also pulled the google into iCal (which works very well - when the calendar “can be found”).  i love google, i love their tools (i’m waiting impatiently for the iPhone update like many others) but dead in the water right now.  anyone have any ideas?
