GAFE


  • Like many widely popular web 2.0 apps, google calendar is of course developed with google. 
  • Google Calendar, or how it is known by some Gcal, is an online calendar in which google is required for it to function. 
  • It went out on April 13, 2006 and went out of Beta in July 2009.
  • The interface was designed by the guy who designed gmail, Kevin Fox.
  • You can share and publish your calendars.
  • Like it is an online calendar, you can access your data from anywhere that has internet and it also means that if you have a hard drive failure or something similar, you won't lose your data because it is online.
  • It is an easy app to use because you can configure it on settings and you can use it with hotkeys also.
  • You can change dates easily with the drag and drop.
  • You can change text color, snooze alarms, connect it to your phone via ICal, change notifications, change things from calendar to calendar.
  • You can edit and change events, details, attachments and more.
  • You can make other people be able to edit them.
  • You can import stuff from other sites like yahoo and outlook.
  • Like it is an online application it can virtually work on any operating system and browser.
  • Because of all of this, it can be used to help teachers and students remind any tasks, projects, home works and tests there may be. This is because it is an online calendar that may be published inline in the sites of the teachers to tell what assignments we have and which we are going to do. It can also be used to fix dates for reading or doing stuff and like it can be seen by everyone, people will be able to access it very easily.
