Last spring, back when I was just getting ready to take over hosting the show that would become Marketplace Tech Report, I was talking to Susan Orlean. You know her from The New Yorker, where she’s a staff writer, or maybe from the movie Adaptation, where a version of Susan was played by Meryl Streep.

In her latest visit with us, Susan takes a look at calendaring apps. Ways to get your life a bit more organized and juggle your schedule effectively while doing so with a bit of panache.

She talks about:
Calvetica

Diacarta and
