Creating lists of events, tasks, and notes in your calendar.
Creating lists of events, tasks, and notes in your calendar can be a great way to stay organized. You could create simple task lists, write reminders for yourself or other people on yellow sticky notes, or even draw stick figures to represent which meetings will take place that day. To keep your tasks from piling and overwhelming you, try scheduling times for the items you create.
Getting started with smart suggestions
With so many things to do and places to go, managing all of your commitments can be a bit overwhelming, especially when scheduling. To help you weather this storm of information, Google Calendar has given us the ability to start suggesting potential meeting locations. Using specific terms that you select, the app will search for perfect meeting spots nearby. For instance, if you add “Trump” as a term in your smart suggestion list, the app will bring up options for Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue. It’s funny how just one word like “sports-pizza” will show options for any type of venue that serves pizza…
