Discreetly re-conceptualizing the calendar
Tl;dr
Google calendar promises 4 key functionalities “sync, schedule, book and meet”. The difference between book and schedule is unclear, as well as what “meet” measn exactly — if not a showcasing of Google meet maybe. I chose to focus on viewing (which is a collateral promise to “syncing” all of one’s calendar’s) as well as scheduling with a special focus on “Goals”. Google calendar delivers on viewing exceptionally well and leverages a FAB button to introduce new cases and elevate the “goal” and “reminder” producs to 1st class citizens at the same level as “events”.
