If you constantly work with a team on various projects or plan trips and events with your friends, then you might wonder how you can share a Google Calendar. This is important so your team or friends can keep a tab on the various events that you add to the calendar, as well as add their events. Since the calendar is shared among multiple people, it’s easier to collaborate on various plans and projects.
