Intro to Google Calendar

- [Instructor] Google Calendar is a great addition to your Google Workspace, as it allows you to manage your schedule and stay up to date and on time for meetings, events, whatever you have going on. You can see that it has a simple layout and it's really easy to use, but it does have a lot of features to help improve the experience. I can quickly create new tasks or events by going to the Create button in the upper left. If I click on this, I can select it and then start setting up that event. Now, I can also do this by going to the calendar and clicking on the date I want to have an event or task. Let's say here the 16th. I'll click on that. And again, I get that box and I can start setting that up. Once you have events in the calendar, if they're ones you created, you can change the date and time by simply clicking and dragging on them. Here, I'll take this one from the 24th, and I need to move it to Wednesday the 23rd. Now, when I do that, it lets me know and asks if I want to update the guests, which is a good idea. On the left-hand side, you'll notice that I have the ability to create multiple calendars. Over here I have several calendars, and I've color-coded them. I also have the ability to turn them on or off, changing what I see inside of this main calendar. At the top, I can adjust the settings by going to the gear icon, which I strongly suggest. If you go to the settings, you'll notice over here on the left you have some options, such as setting your time zone, setting your working hours, and location. You can also go down to the individual calendars and adjust the settings here, including sharing them with other people, so if you need to share your calendar or other things like that. Also, the ability to set notifications, so when and how you'd like to be notified. Back in the calendar, you'll see at the top that I can also adjust the view. Currently, I'm on the month view, but I can switch that to a day view to view just what's going on on this day. I can go to a week view and more. It's actually so intuitive that, on the far left, if I go to this calendar, I can simply click on a day to view that day. Here's the 22nd. And then I can select several days to see more. Let's say I wanted to say this three-day period. I'll select those on that calendar and it now will appear in the middle. So there's a lot that this calendar can do to help you be more productive, and it integrates really well into all of the other Google products. Take advantage of some of these features and continue to learn about new ones.
