What an awesome update from the team @buffer !! Would love to know why you decided to build this and some insights into the development process too?

Hey @bentossell, great question! :) Our Buffer Community has always been an amazing source of inspiration, inspiring us to create awesome products that let our users have "superpowers". Through lots of Customer Development and chats with the community over the past year, we've heard so frequently how cool a calendar view of the classic Buffer queue could be. In fact, we work with an awesome product called UserVoice, and a Calendar View is the #2 most upvoted feature suggestion, second to Instagram access (cannot wait for 3rd party API access there!). So we brainstormed and asked ourselves, "what would Buffer look like if we framed it around Sunrise or Google Calendar?" After a number of iterations and exciting product explorations, we found ourselves looking at the product you see now! I'm so thrilled to share the Social Media Calendar with you today. :)
