I don't understand his criticism of the calendar. I WANT to see past dates. It gives me a context to what day of the week it is in relation to dates before and after today. Nothing irks me more when a calendar does not show days from last month on this month's calendar.

Example: Wednesday is April 2... Was Monday March 30 or 31? It forces me to switch my entire calendar to get this info. I want to see days in March and May on my April calendar.

For me personally, the agenda view is hard to view because my brain works on a week/month scale, not day scale. In day view, I also like to see all my events in blocks throughout the day with gaps, instead of a linear list of events without gaps. It helps me visualise free time.

I learned this rhyme from my parents: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thirty_days_hath_September

It works pretty well (I just remember the first two lines). I hope it saves you some time!

He's criticizing the case where the current date is April 30 and the calendar is still showing March 26, but not May 7, because you are on the April "page" still.

I like the Agenda view. It gives the current or next event at the top and all upcoming stuff below in chronological order.
