  1. Google Calendar Hotkeys by KrugalSausage · · Score: 5, Informative
    I think that most slashdotters love hotkeys, so here ya go:

    Some Google Calendar hot keys:

    a - Agenda view

    c - Create event

    d - Day view

    j and k - forward and back on days/weeks/months

    n and p - next and previous, same as j/k

    m - month view

    q - quick create event, can add date and time and info and it will be added accordingly. I particularly like how it doesn't force the calendar view to focus on the new event. (e.g. april 14 breakfast at tiffanys 03:00)

    s - calendar settings

    x - 'next four days' view

    / and ? - both highlight the search input field, but add a / or ? to the beginning

    (on a side note, is there a hotkey for firefox that automatically highlights the input field on a viewed page?)

    If you select "weekly", checkboxes for the days of the week come up so you can customize.
