INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Nobody really likes meetings — and the few people who do like them are the ones with whom you probably don''t want to have meetings
So when you&ve reached your fill and decide to reschedule some of those obligations, the usual process of trying to find a new meeting time
Thankfully, the Google Calendar team has heard your sighs of frustration and built a new tool that makes rescheduling meetings much
easier.
Starting in two weeks, on August 13th, every guest will be able to propose a new meeting time and attach to that update a message to
the organizer to explain themselves
The organizer can then review and accept or deny that new time slot
If the other guests have made their calendars public, the organizer can also see the other attendees& availability in a new side-by-side
view to find a new time.
What a bit odd here is that this is still mostly a manual feature
To find meeting slots to begin with, Google already employs some of its machine learning smarts to find the best times
This new feature doesn''t seem to employ the same algorithms to proposed dates and times for rescheduled meetings.
This new feature will
work across G Suite domains and also with Microsoft Exchange
It worth noting, though, that this new option won''t be available for meetings with more than 200 attendees and all-day events.
