Google Meet is a fantastic collaboration platform, particularly for those who are on distributed teams or who are working from home. As you can imagine, it integrates seamlessly with other G Suite apps like Gmail and Calendar, and you can not only send out invitations through those apps but you can also schedule future Meet sessions based on your team's availability. Currently only paid G Suite subscribers can schedule Google Meet sessions, but thanks to Google's recent announcement that Meet will be free through the summer, all users will be able to take advantage of this feature soon. Let's dive into just how to get started.

Scheduling a Google Meet invitation on Google Calendar through a web browser is pretty much the same experience as doing so on a mobile app, with the bonus that you can probably type faster on a keyboard. Plus, if you wanted to add any files or notes that were not available on your phone, you can easily do so from your desktop or laptop. I also appreciate how much easier it is to see who is available and when on the computer screen than my phone.
