Google Calendar to Get Labs and Add API
The Google Calendar Apps has it’s own Labs settings and they are adding an API so that developers can add additional features, according to this Washington Post article.
According to the article:
Background Image (now you can change it)Attach a Document (to an event)World Clock (see what time it is for the person you are trying to schedule a meeting with across the world)Jump To Date (quick time-based navigation)Next Meeting (shows how much time is left before your next one)Free or Busy (shows the status if your friends and co-workers)
If you haven’t tried Google Calendar yet, I suggest that you do. It is great to have an Internet calendar that can notify you of events and offers many features that I got used to in a corporate environment. It integrates well with the free and very useful GMAIL mail service. I use Calendar to remind me of imporant dates like peoples’ birthdays, upcoming events, and also to set personal productivity reminders. I like that Google is extending the functionality of this useful web app.
