Unknown: Now let's go through getting started with Google
Calendar. So to log into Google Calendar, you can click on the
waffle button and press calendar. Or the second way you
can login is type in calendar.google.com into the
address bar. And now we're logged into calendar. So this is
what it looks like. Let's go through the interface. On the
left hand side here we have the Create button to create new
events. Underneath that we have the monthly view. So you can
easily and quickly scroll through each month. To go back
to December. In the meet with section, this allows you to
quickly search for colleagues and check their calendar to see
when they're available. Let's type in Nestor. And you can see
his calendar pop up. Then we have my calendars, which are a
bunch of your calendars that you set, and also other calendars,
which is Google's automatic calendars with holidays and
things like that. At the top here, the two arrows allow you
to scroll through the weeks because I've got mine set on
week view. So I can scroll through the next week, January,
February, etc. And then this button today will allow you to
quickly go back to today. Over here on the right, we had the
search button, Support button, and the settings menu. And here
we can toggle through your preferred way of viewing. So you
can either just see today's today's schedule, the week
schedule, which was my preference, the entire month,
the year a schedule of your days events, or four days and four
days is totally customizable. If you want it to be three days or
two days, you can set that in the settings. Let's go back to
the week. And on the right here, we've got extra apps and add
ons. But we won't go through that in this video. So the main
bulk of the calendar is here. This is where you add your
events and you can scroll up and down. And the important thing to
note up here is here's where you write down all day events, for
example, because Christmas Eve Christmas Day Boxing Day, and
I'm in Thailand at the moment, so you can see this big blue bar
here. And what when this is helpful is when you're looking
at it in month view. You can easily see the all day events
and the ones that span across multiple days. But let's go back
to the week view. So that's a bit about the interface on
Google Calendar. The timezone is here on the left. And what's
cool about Google Calendar is that you can change your
timezone and create your events in the timezone that you're in.
But no matter where you are, everyone says it in their own
timezone. So this is really helpful with travel plans, and
it makes you makes it easier to create events for people that
are all around the world. And another good thing about Google
Calendar, is it it's fully compliant with other calendar
devices out there. So it doesn't matter if you use iCal on your
Mac, or Outlook as well. You can create an event in Google
Calendar and then send it to somebody else's calendar and it
will all be in the same standardized format for
calendar. And before we go into the next video, I encourage you
to download the Google Calendar app, it'll look like this in the
App Store and little icon. And that will also allow your
calendar on your computer to sync down with your phone or
your iPad as well. So that's a bit about getting started with
Google Calendar. If you
