Share Google Calendar with iCal
Dec0
How are your cross-platform skills?
If, like me, you use a PC for the day job but have seen the light and purchased a Mac for your own work, you will be interested to know that the programmers at Google have released an interesting app.
Called Calaboration, this allows you to access your google calendar through your Mac’s iCal app.
This means that while you are out and about, without access to your trusty Mac, you can update your Google Calendar and then sync it with you Mac when you get home. Obviously you can then sync it with your iPhone / iPod as you normally would.
Obviously, I would much rather have a Mac at work so don’t get me started!
