Aha, now I'm a huge fan of Doodle for setting up any kind of appointment or meeting, and the more people involved the better a tool Doodle becomes, as it removes the flurry of emails and subsequent waste of time involved... or so you'd think. The last three times I've used it people have rather annoyingly reverted back to email to qualify their statement or even worse, repeat it. Now people, that was the whole point of setting up a Doodle link in the first place!
On the plus side, it's incredibly easy to set up and removes so much unnecessary faffing about: Doodle calculates the best date and time for your meeting based purely on numbers and what people have input, end of story. With 5 day-time staff our Library is too small to make using Doodle an efficient internal tool - our good old paper diary does the trick just fine thank you - but to set up meetings with anybody else, be they academics or librarians at other libraries, it's just invaluable. I love it.
