Managing Activity Ideas with Google Calendar

I’ve been using Google Calendar pretty extensively lately, and I’m working out some systems to make things a little easier for myself. The most effective idea so far has been creating a second calendar, which I call “Ideas”. Everything I come across that I think I might do - city festivals, concerts, tentatively discussed visits to friends - gets added to the “Ideas” calendar. When I commit to something, all I need to do is edit it and switch it to my main calendar, and it’s ready to go, confirmed even. And since I share my confirmed calendar with my parents and siblings, they don’t have to see things that I’m still considering or my reminders.

My other calendars are work and birthdays - pretty simple and straightforward, but nice to be able to turn off when there’s a lot going on in a week.
