AROUND SOUND - Fun With Google Calendar

By
Real Estate Agent with First Realty Auburn

 got entirely sidetracked this evening, playing with Google Calendar, and creating a music & theatre Events Calendar for my local town of Auburn Alabama.

Now I need to re-trace my steps to figure out what I did exactly, but it was surprisingly fun!  Google spells out all of the steps. I always struggle with these things, so I can assure you that, even if you feel like you're all un-teched thumbs, you will smile at what you can do with this calendar :-)

(SOUNDing GOOD???)

and, like magic, it got into my sidebar...

Truly, what would a HOME be without some MUSIC?

Rats, I thought you had found a way to play music when Google Calendar was shown!

I love Google Calendar! It makes the old expensive Microsoft Office software entirely obsolete - and its FREE! It is a great way to coordinate with staff, clients or family.

Mara~I'll have to check out the Google calendar.

(The font is also difficult to read, so it really should be used as a headline font only). Not complaining, just observing...

Mark - I've just discovered it's applications more recently, and, with patience, am really liking it a lot as I learn.

Liz - I'll agree with you...once I saw it...I picked a Broadway front, thinking it would carry a theme...it looked a lot different, once "published." I've changed it.

Don't you hate it when you get sidetracked and lose an hour of your day?  I like how you embedded the calendar on the blog.

My whole family uses one calender and Google has too little room for these 4 adults...

Cameron - well, of course I secretly love it, and it relaxes the side of my brain that's in "overdrive."

Paul - It's nice to have a whole family on 'the same page'!

Hi Mara!  I haven't played with this yet.  Hubby's going out of town for a few days so maybe I can find some time in the evening to check it out.
