It's been 10 years since the first Kijiji ad was posted in Canada

On February 2005, an ad posting searching for community volunteers in Quebec was what started it all for Kijiji in Canada.  10 years later, Kijiji has become a destination to buy and sell as well as an online community. Owned by eBay, Kijiji has since exploded and now offers  6,027,227 classifieds. 

The free service has seen Canadians connecting with neighbours in more than 100 cities and towns across the country about everything from finding the perfect deal on a tablet to selling a coveted iPhone. Kijiji Canada celebrates its 10 anniversary tommorow.

Link Google Drive files with Google Calendar for Android

Google is adding even more functionality to its Calendar app on Android with the latest update. You can now associate Google Drive files to events. So, if you want people to see what the agenda is for your next meeting, you don’t have to send it in a separate email.

Other than that, Google Calendar also gets a seven-day week view, pinch-to-zoom navigation, and the ability to import .ICS calendar files you get through email. They’re rolling it out now and should be hitting your device soon. If you’re on iOS, you just have to wait a bit more, Google is working on it.
