Re:Show HN: Available: Seamlessly share your calendar availability ins... on Wednesday September 02, 2020 @12:00PM (#24354496)
Available is a Chrome Extension that allows you to easily share your calendar availability inside of your Gmail compose/reply view. The best part––it pastes the times as plain text.

I've been a user of various calendar scheduling tools in the past, but always felt awkward sending a branded widget or URL to my recipient asking them to book time on my calendar. Especially if I was the one asking for their time.

I've been using this extension for a few weeks and it has saved me quite a bit of time by not having to switch between Gmail and my calendar tabs every time I'm coordinating a meeting request!

Excited to share this with y'all. If you have any questions/run into bugs, feel free to DM me on Twitter (@_shahedk) or email me [email protected] :-)

Re:Hide Google Meet Buttons from Google Calendar on Wednesday July 08, 2020 @05:54PM (#23774632)
As a regular Zoom and Google Calendar user, I found it annoying how Google kept shoving the Google Meet button down users throat every time you try to create an event––so I decided to build a browser extension to hide it.

It works with both Chrome and Firefox. Sharing it here if you find it useful.

Agree. Crazy to think no airline has put a real effort in their IFE systems.

I'm working on a side project called "Timezone" which is (wait for it) a timezone convertor app.I've been working on it on and off for a few months, until recently when I decided to spend more time on it. I don't really like Apple's native Clock app and want to replace it.I'm designing the product and would love to find someone who'd want to build this out with me for fun. Obviously I'd split...

Re:Should I go to college or keep working in Silicon Valley? on Thursday August 01, 2013 @05:10PM (#6143566)
I just graduated high school (2 months ago) and got a few offers right after I graduated.

I'm currently doing a summer internship in Silicon Valley and plan on staying here for at least a year and improve my skills as a designer.

I've been offered a few great full time offers already, but still exploring my paths to make sure whichever decision I make, is the right one.

I plan on going to college (that's definitely something I want to do), but I'm on the same boat right now, and want to take advantage of the offers on the table right now that might not be there after I get out of college.

Any advice for me?

SEEKING WORK - Chicago/Remote/Willing to travel within U.S.

Having trouble finding a UI/UX designer that fits within your budget?

My name is Shahed Khan, a UI/UX designer and freelancer based in Chicago, IL. I've co-founded two start-ups and realize that bootstrapping is one of the hardest things of running a start-up. If you're looking to build out the first version of your product, but don't have a boat load of money lying around to pay a freelancer, that's where I come in. I've been freelancing for a few years as a visual UI/UX designer. I have experience taking projects from idea to a full design ready to send off to the developer to make it a reality.

What I can offer:

* UI/UX design

* Creative branding

* iOS designing

* Web designing

* Android designing

* Wordpress Theme designing

* Responsive design (RWD)

* Search Engine Optimization

Please do not hesitate to send me an email, I'm more than happy to chat about what it is you're looking to build. I've attached a link to my portfolio and LinkedIn profile.

Portfolio - http://dribbble.com/shahed (There are a few projects I have not uploaded on Dribbble yet, so please feel free to email me asking for some of my other WIP (work in process).
