Microsoft introduced the Free/Busy information in Outlook 2007 which, in combination with Exchange 2007 allowed users to see their colleagues availability when organizing meetings. Google today introduced a similar feature for its Google Apps for Work or Edu called "Find a Time" in Google Calendar for Android.
"Find a Time" will help users find the meeting time that is suitable for everyone even if they're in different time zones. Google says that if "there are no times that work, Calendar, will look which conflicting meetings can most easily be rescheduled." "Find a Time" also works in the case where you manage someone else's calendar and will let you schedule meetings on their behalf.
Download Google Calendar for Android in Google Play store and enjoy on-the-go scheduling.
