Calendar Updates announced the release of their TV Listings for Microsoft Outlook. With this release, Microsoft Outlook users will have the ability to browse TV Listings directly from within Outlook. Programs that viewers are interested in can easily be added to their calendar with one click of the mouse. The TV Listings are available to the public free of charge at www.calendar-updates.com.

According to company spokesman, Greg Titamer, "We already provide many popular sport schedules for the Microsoft Outlook calendar. With this new product, fans can check for updated broadcast information without leaving Outlook."

Besides the benefits for sports fans, the TV Listings will allow viewers to browse all television shows in their area. "Whether you want the latest broadcast information for a sporting event or just want to plan your evening entertainment, this new service provides a convenient way to do that," says Mr. Titamer. The service is available in all areas of the United States and Canada.

The most notable feature of the Calendar Updates TV Listings is the ability to add any television show directly to the Outlook calendar. As a user browses the TV Listings, programs can be added to their calendar by clicking a calendar icon in the grid. The program is then added to their calendar with a convenient reminder.

Calendar Updates provides three formats for installing the TV Listings, depending on the version of Outlook used. The TV Listings are available for Outlook 2003, Outlook XP (2002) and Outlook 2000. Non-Outlook users are also welcome to use the service via the Internet. Any calendaring application that supports the vCalendar format can benefit from the Add to Calendar feature.
