I have mixed feelings about this particular feature of Google. It was frustrating at times because I had to read a lot of links to figure out how to use this thing properly. I do think that this would be a great tool to use in the classroom. You could make a class calendar where you could communicate with students and parents because you can make this open to the public. However, if I were to use Google Calendar for my own personal use I would never make my calendar open to the public. I think that would be a little creepy knowing someone could look at what I'm doing for the whole month!

This is great for people who might not have a jump drive when you need to save a presentation, document, etc. It's always great to have a backup plan and a safe place to store your creations. I know that students are not allowed access to their personal email accounts at school, but this would be a great way for them to keep up with their work.
