Mythbusting - Google

I found that adding birthday and anniversary reminders on Google left me giggling helplessly in pain at how terribly impossible it was!

Friends whose birthdays came after today (march 31) for which I wanted annual reminders, the calendar refused to add reminders for this year. Old events would not show up in search results as much as I try to change the dates!

And each time I tried making alterations, the year jumped ahead by one. Sigh! Was it a problem between the keyboard and chair or was the calendar temperamental?

Sometimes, the date control would not budge. Sat there like a stubborn donkey impassive to impatient lashes. Also, I realized that sometimes when I cleared search criterea, the date would not scroll. Then again, the same event was added twice for the same day, or the event date altered as it pleased!

Aha, so Google is not entirely bug free! Perhaps, they do need bandaid occasionally!
