I admit it. I don't really care about months. When a new one comes round, nothing changes in my life.

So, why is the 'month view' so prevelant in calendar apps?

What I normally DO care about is context. My ideal view would be:

3-4 weeks into the future and maybe 1 week into the past. This way I can see what is coming up, and a bit of what just happened.

The month view totally breaks down when you are at the border of a month.
