Timebridge Funding and Review

backtime TimeBridge received $5M in funding earlier this week from Mayfield and Norwest.  They provide free online scheduling software.   I did a test run of it and it is very simple to use.  I invite myself to a meeting and it seemed straight forward.  There is also an option to share your calendar with your invitee and the ability to propose possible times.  I believe the coolest feature is the integration with Outlook or Google Calendar.

It looks like a decent site, but I wonder what they plan to spend the whole $5M on.   In addition, the biggest issue I have with a site like this is that it only solves one management problem.  It seems it would work well with an entire CRM package or something.  I feel like there are a ton of SaaS providers that provide just a few features.  Where is the free service that handles all of it in one place?
