Using lots of web 2.0 tools takes careful scheduling, so you might like to try some of the event management tools which are available.
Doodle
Doodle allows you to work out when to schedule a meeting. You set up a doodle, then fill in the available times, you e-mail it to the people you want to meet with. They fill in their times. A quick glance will then let you know what time the meeting can be held.
Set up a meeting with doodle and send and invite to nswpln@gmail.com
Google calendar
Google calendar can be accessed using your gmail account. It works like other online calendars, where you fill in the details of meetings. It can be accessed in offline mode as well.

Try to add you as a friend on google calendar but have to wait for your approval. I think all the tools have similar features. I got an invitation from our reading group for Xmas lunch which was from google calendar. It's so simple to set up.
I think this tool would work fantastically well for people who have a lot of meetings to attend. You could even email it to your self to remind you of up coming events or meetings. Its a great idea.
Not being one who has lots of meetings to attend or organise, I didn't find this that useful. But handy to know about for future reference maybe.
