Thanks, Adenilson. I cannot watch the videos at the moment, so I'll
ask. Where is the "master copy" of the contacts / events stored? I use
Korganizer / Kaddressbook extensively and I would like to be able to
read it's data over the 'net via google, however, I would like to know
that the changes and updates to the data are made locally (withing
Kontact) and then propagated out to Google.
