Very informative video. In fact I was just today, looking around for a way to share my calendar. So this is a Godsend to me. But what does the other person do, after he/she receives the notification? What will it look like on his/her computer? I ask because the person I need to share it with, is not very computer savvy. Thanks for any guidance.
Question, Scott: If I share using the free/busy permission, does "free" just mean the blank areas in the calendar? I would like to show a certain number of hour-long appointment blocks each day, with the status of each block displaying either free or busy. Any way I can do this? Thanks in advance!
Yes, when you share a Google Calendar with the "free/busy" permission, "free" refers to any time slots where you haven't scheduled anything, while "busy" refers to times where events are scheduled. The shared person will only see whether you're free or busy, without any event details.
If someone cancels the appointment on their calendar, it doesn't let me know. I don't get an email, and it doesn't get removed from my calendar. Is there a setting to fix that, or is that just a bug?

FINALLY!!!!
If someone cancels the appointment on their calendar, it doesn't let me know. I don't get an email, and it doesn't get removed from my calendar.

If I give "Make Changes" permission to the other guy, can he/she add and delete events too? That is my main requirement.
Yes, that is correct. This level of permission will give them the ability to add, edit, or delete events.
