Dear Readers,

I am sorry for the delay in my post. As my mom was going to india and i was busy with her packing. She is travelling safe now. On behalf of my readers i wish her safe & happy journey.

If you are not aware or not used Google calender till date then you really missed something which you should have not :(.

Yes, Google calender is one of the good and daily use product in our day to day life. It's an awesome application from Google. You will get a summary of your daily event on your start of the day, you can synchronize your Google calender event with any of your smart phones +++++ we can keep adding many features like this. It also has some disadvantage like we cannot snooze the event and we cannot dismiss the event as like Microsoft outlook has. But we know about Google, it always gives you the outstanding feature compared with others. We hope for the best soon.

Today i am gonnna show the recent feature which gives desktop notification about your scheduled events in your Google calender.


Please follow the below steps for the same.

Step1: Open Chrome and enable the notification option by choosing Tools –> Options –> Under the Hood –> Content settings --> Notifications--> "Ask me when a site wants to show desktop notifications.


Step2: Don't think you will get notification now, you just need to enable it in your Google calender. Open Google Calender and click on Settings--> Calender Settings--> Labs--> Click on Enable for "Gentle Remainders" 


Step3: Once you click on Save you will be requested with a message box stating do you want to allow or not. click on Allow.


Step4: Once you allow the notifications you will get your alerts on your desktop as shown below.
