I like to use Google Calendar much less as a time organizer and more as a big to do list. Now I hadn’t really given two thoughts to the mobile version because I don’t really browse the Web on too many mobile devices. After having a look though – I thought to myself – this would make the perfect sidebar for Firefox.
This is how you can get it added to your own browser:
1. Browse to http://calendar.google.com/m
2. Bookmark that web page, or drag the link to your links toolbar.
3. Right-click on the bookmark, select “properties” and then click the checkmark for “load this bookmark in sidebar”.
I don’t know about you but this just makes the application a little more usable for me. Big fonts, big colors and a guide of what I need to do over the next few days. Also it acts as a great reminder tool for folks who like to make sure they are getting things done.
That’s an awesome tip! Even though I use Sunbird, Google, and a hard-copy planner, I still tend to forget sometimes. Since I almost always have my sidebar open anyway, this makes everything a lot easier.
Great blog!
That’s excellent
So simple and yet so useful
