Google Calendar

Google Calendar is the default calendar associated with Google accounts. If you have a Gmail address, you have a Google calendar! You can access it by going to calendar.google.com.

To import events from a Google calendar PlaceCal needs the Public address in iCal format. This should be entered in the URL field when adding a Calendar to PlaceCal.

You can find the Public address in iCal format on each Google calendar's Settings page under the subheading Integrate calendar. Note that the calendar needs to be set to Make available to public in order for PlaceCal to be able to access its events.
