Adding to the dilemma was the fact that I use a Microsoft Exchange Server for my scheduling and my wife uses Google Calendar.

I suspected that there was likely an easy way for us to share our calendars but I just has not taken the time to look into it.

How it is done…

In Outlook:

  1. In Outlook with your calendar selected select “Publish Online” from the ribbon bar (I’m using Outlook 2010)
  2. You will want to select Publish to Office Online
  3. I made my calendar publicly availible to anyone just to avoid any annoying permission issues.
  4. You can then select to share your calendar with others.
  5. You will be given a link that you can use in Google Calendar that will read in your calendar

Back in Google:

  1. In Google Calendar under “Other Calendars” click settings
  2. Then click “Import Calendars”
  3. Then select the Add URL tab.
  4. Copy & Paste the link you were given in Outlook into the Google Calendar area.
  5. Now your Outlook Calendar is shared to Google Calendar.
