Google Apps has upped its game, with improved features for business users.
In a blog post yesterday the company outlined some of the ways Google Calendar has improved over the past month with a handful of small but important features. Many of them are aimed at business users.
One of the new improvements is flexible reminders. Setting up reminders in the previous system had presets on when you'd be able to get the message. The new system is far more customisable and lets you drop in whatever time you want, complete with an option for days, which means you could set a reminder years in advance. You can still set whether you want it as a pop-up, email or SMS message.
The other major improvement is the option to selectively email meeting attendees. Like Outlook you can now get a separate list of people who have replied yes, no, or maybe and email specific groups.
Alongside these two features is a slight upgrade to the event creation tool which now allows for overlapping events, as well as a new two-click calendar subscription shortcut that lets you subscribe to someone else's calendar without having to deal with special invites or permissions.
