Q: Viewing iCal with Google Calendar
Hi, I currently use iCal for everything, and have several calendars synced with my iCal to keep organized. The problem that I'm having is I would like for my boyfriend to be able to see things that I add onto my iCal on his google calendar. He doesn't need to be able to add/edit it, he just needs to be able to see things that we have planned. Is there any way to do this?

Yes, there is.
While viewing your calendar on your Mac, click the sharing icon that looks like the sound waves just to the right of the calendar you want to share.
Check the box for Public Calendar and a URL will appear. Copy the URL and email it to your boyfriend's Gmail account.
Your boyfriend will then need to open his Google Calendar and click the down arrow to the right of where it says Other Calendars.
Then click Add by URL. Then copy/paste your ical URL you emailed to him into the box and click Add Calendar.
