Title: Connecticut Appleseed Google Calendar
Post by: The Log on January 02, 2011, 02:16:38 PM
Not sure if this has been tried before, or if it will be useful, but I've created a public Google calendar for CT Appleseed Events. The ID for the calendar is 2opq66k9tk3eg2jic7mbens8ck@group.calendar.google.com, and the URL for accessing it is http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=2opq66k9tk3eg2jic7mbens8ck%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/New_York. If someone that uses Google Calendar could give that a try and let me know if the events are visible, I'd appreciate it.

If it looks good, and appears to be useful from a promotions standpoint, I'll take on the task of keeping the calendar updated. Let me know what you think.

Looks good. I don't know if you can "embed" a Google calendar in other applications, but it might be useful to research whether this can be embedded somehow in the CT Appleseed facebook group. Certainly it'd be great to create a sticky at the top of this forum also.

I also like playing around with the different views available. I like this linear one (called "agenda") as it lays out all the upcoming events over the next few months, not just January.  https://www.google.com/calendar/b/0/embed?src=2opq66k9tk3eg2jic7mbens8ck@group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/New_York&gsessionid=OK

BTW, I just played around with it and love the feature of "copy to my calendar". As a Gmail/calendar user, this will be very useful... just got the Fred AIBC's copied on over just now. :-)

Thanks Dan, looks great.
