Title: Shared calendar for Facebook group?
Post by: Marie (Zionkowski) Gozikowski on May 27, 2011, 09:52:17 AM
I'm looking for a calender to track peoples schedules in a
Facebook group.  I need one that everyone can see and
modify... any suggestions?

Google calendar has a FB interface... would that work?

Thanks!

I would think it would.  Just make sure it is a public calendar.  I'm not sure if it would limit access to FB friends, however.

Thanks Jeff!

It is a private group for my band, so not worried about access by
others, just looking for an easy way for all to mark available dates.

The only thing that might happen is some bored kids might have fun with your calendar and mess it up.

I use yahoo calendar for our office scheduling of appointments.  Everyone knows the log in and password so they add Dr appts vacations etc.  There's only 5 of us so it works well.

Good idea, Terry.   You beat me to it.   I was going to suggest Google calendar through a new common gmail account, but Yahoo would probably do the same.

If everyone in the band has a Google account, you could just make a Google calendar available and add everyone to it.  It would not have to be public then, and you could see everyone's entries in a different color.
