Google Presents Search Public Events A new feature of Google Calendar	By Bogdan Popa, Security and Search Engines Editor 16th of November 2006, 07:32 GMT Adjust text size:


Are you interested in movies, concerts, soccer games or other events? Do you want to know when they are scheduled? Just install Google Calendar and find out! Nikhil Chandhok, Google Product Manager, presented the new tool as a feature that "you search over public events added by others using Calendar and also events we've added by working with partners to provide movie listings, concerts, and all sorts of other fun events." "There are many reasons we wanted to build this feature, but mainly because some of us on the team moved to New York last year to work in our office there. Needless to say, we wanted to experience everything that the city had to offer but had trouble finding all the fun and fascination that New York has to offer. After Google Calendar launched in April, we saw a surge in the number of public calendars being shared. We thought if we made public events searchable, we could find interesting events with little effort by encouraging people to share interesting events," he added. "With Google Calendar, you can see your friends' and family's schedules right next to your own; quickly add events mentioned in Gmail conversations or saved in other calendar applications; and add other interesting events that you find online," is Google's description of the product.
