Google Calendar is a great way to keep track of appointments, birthdays, events, and more. It’s a free service made available to every platform under the sun. But there may be a time when you need to coordinate with others, and that’s where sharing calendars come into play.
This guide shows you how to share a calendar in Google. It’s quick and easy, but it must be done through the Google Calendar website, not the apps. Other users don’t necessarily need a Google account either, as they can access your Google Calendar using a shared link.
Step 1: Open Google Calendar in a web browser. Again, you cannot share a calendar using the apps.
Step 2: Click to expand My Calendars listed on the left. If you don’t see it, click on the “hamburger” icon in the top left corner to expand the main menu and access My calendars.
Step 3: Hover the mouse cursor over the calendar you want to share until a three-dot icon appears. Click on the three-dot icon.
Step 4: Select the Settings and sharing option on the pop-up menu.
Here you will see options to change the access permissions or to share the calendar with specific people.
This option is ideal for sharing a calendar with individuals who normally don’t use Google Calendar.
Step 1: With the Calendar settings still open, select Access permissions listed on the left.
Step 2: Check the box next to Make available to public listed on the right.
Step 3: Click OK in the pop-up window to acknowledge that making the calendar public makes everything visible to the world.
Step 4: Click the See all events button and change to See only free/busy (hide details) if needed.
Step 5: Click the Get sharable link button to retrieve a URL you can share with others.
To stop publicly sharing the calendar, uncheck the box next to the Make available to public setting.
Step 1: With the Calendar settings still open, select Share with specific people listed on the left.
Step 2: Click on the + Add people button displayed on the right.
Step 3: When a pop-up window appears on the screen, enter the contact’s email address and repeat as necessary for additional contacts.
Step 4: Click the Down arrow under Permissions to select one of four options on a drop-down list.
Step 5: Click the Send button to send out the calendar invite. The recipient will need to click on the emailed link to gain access to your shared calendar.
You can allow individuals to make changes to the calendar too. To do so, click the down arrow next to their name and email address listed under Share with specific people. The options include Make changes to events and Make changes and manage sharing. Here you can also switch their access between See all event details and See only free/busy (hide details) modes.
To stop sharing the calendar with individuals or groups, click the X next to their name and email address listed under Share with specific people.
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
