Google integration[edit]
Google Calendar is integrated with other Google services:
Gmail, Google's webmail service. When an e-mail that contains trigger words (such as "meeting", or dates and times) arrives, an "add to calendar" button is automatically displayed alongside it.
iGoogle, the user-designed Google homepage, in which users could choose and organize content in the form of 'gadgets'. The calendar was shown as a module on one's homepage. This "gadget" offered options to edit how the time is displayed, which day the week starts on, and a link to "Add Event".[8] iGoogle was discontinued on November 1, 2013.[9]
Google Desktop, Google's desktop search software for Windows or Mac OS X. The mini-calendar gadget allowed one to view their agenda without having to open their browser. One could place it on their desktop or leave it docked in the sidebar.[8] Google Desktop was discontinued in September 2011.[10]
