Thing 8: Google Calendar

I have used Google Calendar before but I did not find it very useful for me. I prefer a visible calendar on my wall and in hand to keep me organized. What I did not like about the calendar is that I had to be online, in some way, to see it or get notices. This is great if I am always plugged in, but there are times I like, or am forced, to be unplugged. So the old fashion way is best for me. However, I love this tools as a means of keeping teams on track for group projects. I also love  how it can be used for websites to announce and keep track of events. Overall, I think this is a great tool for libraries and librarians. It is easy to use, manage, and share :)
