- Subscribe vs. Import
- Import: This method places a one-time snapshot of the events into your calendar. Note that your calendar will NOT altomatically refresh these events (even if they are updated online). When you import events, they will show your availability as Busy.
- Subscribe: This method connects your calendar to the online calendar. Changes to the online calendar will be reflected in your calendar during automatic periodic refreshes. However, subscribed calendars will show your availability as Free.
