Google Calendar: Now Even better

Google has made some nice little changes to it's popular Google Calendar. The changes may seem small, but they really matter, and make it even better!

For ex: Flexible reminder times

Now, you can now set a reminder for any time between 4 weeks and 5 minutes before your event. This feature is really going to be very useful and popular for many of us.










Dragging to create new events

Making a new event from the Day or Week view is really easy -- you simply click on the time, drag the duration and enter a name. But if you have a busy calendar (and who doesn't?) you probably bumped into some problems. If an event is already scheduled for that time, there was no way to click and drag without messing up the other events on your calendar. You told us you often worked around this by creating the meeting in an open slot and dragging it to the desired time. Lots of extra work.

Adding a friend's calendar









It's much easier now: you simply start typing a name in the "Add a friend's calendar" box and we'll match against your address book. Click the name, and the calendar will be added.


Perhaps big launches and shiny new features get most of the attention, but little things matter too.
