Once upon a time, I wrote quite a large amount of content for another company. My calendar days were filled with entries, one for each article I wrote. At the same time, I wrote for other companies (but not as much). For that main company, I used the default color for each calendar appointment and would change the color for each appointment that was for a different client. When ZDNET took the place as my primary client, for whatever reason, I didn’t want it associated (in any way) with the old company. This led me to change the default color for every calendar entry for a ZDNET article. That’s not efficient. After over a year of that, I realized I should simply change the default color of that calendar to reflect what I’d chosen to represent ZDNET. So, instead of that dull blueish color that had come to represent the client for which I no longer wrote, I could change it to the ZDNET neon green. That way, there’d be no mistaking what entries were for ZDNET. Easy peasy. This may sound trivial, but when you want to be able to quickly glance at your calendar and know exactly what you’re doing and for whom, it makes perfect sense. That said, how do you do this? It’s very simple. Let me show you.
