Google Calendar Updates - Optional Invites #gsuite #googlecalendar #edtech

Google Calendar recently made some updates to the interface which I like. They're slowly transforming all of their products to a cleaner look that matches their mobile apps. One nice change that was recently unveiled is the option to make attendees to your events optional, which is a nice touch. That way people know your expectations ahead-of-time and it's a bit more graceful and puts less pressure on attendees.

When you create an event, click on More Options, then Add Guests. Choose a name and then click the little person next to their name to make their status Optional.
