Thing #16

Fellow teachers (especially those with a smart phone),

Did you know that you can sync your smart phone with your Google Calendar?  Super duper easy! I have had this feature on my phone years ago.  You can also sync Outlook to your smart phone (but I like the flexibility of Google Calendars and the user friendly aspect). 

I end up not using the "to do" feature because I use my phone for that, but I could certainly use the "to do" feature on the Google Calendar.

In case you can't tell, I prefer the Google Calendar above all the others.  When I first got my iPhone, I downloaded all kinds of apps to help me keep track of my time, and nothing was as easy as the Google Calendar.  It's like Google was made just for smart phones!  (Now I think you can even sync your the photos you take with your phone with Google+, but I haven't played around with that yet). 

If you want to be able to edit your calendar from any computer and your phone, Google Calendar is your best bet!
