A marcom or public communications calendar is an online tool designed to assist, guide, track and manage all marketing activities in a timely manner. I use the term edcomcal rather than just edcal which implies just editorial or comcal which doesn't convey that content (or message) is critical to any communications. iComCal is the public facing calendar read-only and CrossPinPoints is the private security internal user access only calendar. That is, iComCal is designed to be managed by a moderator who lists, changes and updates the calendar. Users can send changes to the moderator.
