As of September 2009, we have three group calendars to help coordinate ourselves! These are called 'Wales Group Holidays', 'Wales Group Events' and 'Wales Group Visitors'. They're Google calendars and so you'll need either a Google account or to register your current email address with Google when you receive a notification email.

Getting access to the group calendars

To get access, you need to drop (preferably) me - csw34@cam.ac.uk - or David an email. We will then simply add you to the list of users. If you do not have an account with Google Calendars, you will then receive an email with details about how to register an email address.

Adding information to the calendar

To add information, you need to be logged in to either your Google account, or using the email address you registered when you got the notification email. Once you've logged in, adding information is very easy. I recommend that you take a look at the Google help to get started - for example the tour or browse the help index here. There is also a reasonable looking YouTube guide here. One thing to remember is that when you add an event, you get to choose which calendar to add it to - make sure you select the appropriate group calendar otherwise we won't be able to see it!

When you do add information about a holiday you're taking, or a visitor who is coming, make sure that you add your name to the event, as putting 'on holiday in Antarctica' isn't helpful for anyone! 'Chris is on holiday in Antarctica' is much more informative.
