online scheduling?

[john lamb]

hey I'm trying out online scheduling with my site http://www.drumlessonsportland.com ... does anyone have any experience with online scheduling? is it worth the money? Are some apps worth more than others? thanks!

Not sure if this has a similar feature built in, but it was a great help when i was teaching...

oh that looks pretty awesome. That does what I'm taking about and a lot more.... The only drawback is that its only through their website ... but I will be looking into that, too- thanks!

What do you use to run your website?

Anything like Joomla, Wordpress or Drupal?

You could easily have something set up that allows students(authenticated users) to fill time slots up on a calendar.

You could then have it send you email notifications or get nasty on it and have it interface with something that sits on your pc or smart phone.

It really depends on what you have, what works with it, and who you have geeking out on it.

Honestly with any kind of host database capability, this thing could be integrated into almost any site.

I use Wordpress. I'm the only one working on it though, and wouldn't know where to start!

that music teacher helper thing seemed pretty awesome, I forwarded it to my old drum teacher to check out. Thanks for sharing!
