Google Calendar of Conference events #ldconf #ical

By | Wed 16th September 2009 - 11:38 am

I apologise from the outset, but this is going to be one of those posts that not everyone understands. If you’re not technical, or if your diary is still entirely paper based, look away now.

Neil McGovern, a Cambridge City councillor, has grepped the conference directory so that you don’t have to. He’s written a program that scrapes the information about the training and fringe events (including LDV’s fringe fiesta) and plugs them into a Google Calendar.

This means that if you use GCal yourself, you can import all those events into your diary – and from there, straight into your PDA or phone.

If you don’t use Gcal, there are feeds available that work with pretty much any online diary system, including HTML and ICAL.

Here are the handy links. Good luck!
