Going to do some looking into syncing my calendars with Outlook... spotted an "update outlook" link in the tour dates section of qotsa.com1 while looking for confirmation that Josh Homme has totally wussed out of the forthcoming UK shows, just because he's spewing up blood... Seems clicking on the "update outlook" link next to a date sends a .vcs file that looks like this:
BEGIN:VCALENDAR PRODID:-//Microsoft Corporation//Outlook 9.0 MIMEDIR//EN VERSION:1.0 BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART:20050225T000000Z DTEND:20050225T000000Z DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE: Kantine SUMMARY;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE: Queens of the Stone Age Concert PRIORITY:3 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
So, looks easy, will have a go at that after I finish my work on mod_perl... Might have a go at including some public holidays and moon phases too, from timeanddate.com2... Task for tonight too, Update the IPOD firmware and learn more about microcontroller programming3...
💬 howto: getting started with microcontroller programming
