- Ikioi, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Actually, it's easy enough with just linking to the RSS tag:
1. Go into Google Calendar.
2. Go to "Settings" -> "Calendars"
3. Click on the Calendar you want on your front page.
4. Click the XML button for "Private Address:"
5. Copy the URL you find. It will look something like: http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/you@gmail.com/private-xxxx...
6. Go to your Google Personalize Homepage.
7. Click "Add Content"
8. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on where it says "More information for Feed Owners". (If you can't find it, the URL is http://www.google.com/webmasters/add.html ).
9. In the box that says "Your feed URL:" paste the URL you got from your calendar and click "Create HTML".
10. It will give you a snippet of code. Copy the part in "" that says something like http://fusion.google.com/add?feedurl=...
11. Paste into your browser's address bar, and open it.
12. Pick "Add to Google homepage".
13. Done
If you want to skip a few steps, just make the URL by hand by putting http://fusion.google.com/add?feedurl= at the beginning of the URL you copied out of your Calendar.
This works with recurring events, all day events, timed events, etc. because Google just reads it like any other RSS feed. This means it will work on your Google mobile phone homepage too, because it doesn't use any special widgets. It's not super pretty, but it works well, and should be plenty for new users of Calendar until Google releases something officially. And no, the RSS isn't ordered, unfortunately. But, I'm sure that now that this is on the digg front page, an official addition will be released in probably 48 hours. - ghelton, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7doesnt work if you have recurring events
- j0rd4n, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4You can add an RSS to your calendar on the main page but you don't get the cool grid display. Just go to your calendar settings and grab the private calendar RSS link. If you click on "Add Contents" on the Google personalized page and click "Advanced Options" near the search, you can input the RSS link. It isn't great but it works.
- spadgos, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3what, like dreaming about being chased by dogs?
- hotani, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1FBI.gov has an AJAX calendar too? sweet!
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2I was looking for something like this! Thanks digg. Unfortunately you can't have any recurring events in the calendar because it won't work then... so I guess I'll just have to wait until Google releases something. Really, this was what I was looking for yesterday for about an hour.
- twisterX, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Its too much work. Ill just wait up untill Google releases their own that works right away and much better. Shouldn't be too long.
- Toupee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1It really isn't hard at all. It just isn't that great.
- Steaminx, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1It works. I like it a lot. Thanks.
- xiongchiamiov, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Good. Thanks.
- bariswheel, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1Has anyone created public calendars? I'm trying to create a public calendar for a theatre for people to import into...do i need another 'public' account?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2There is also an agenda display in Gmail: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/3829
- hotani, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I found a way to get it into Netvibes:
Under 'Add Content' there is an 'iCal Viewer' module, select that and for the url input the 'Private Address' for iCal under 'Settings -> Calendar -> your calendar'
Seems to work well, since I have one calendar set up for home stuff and one for work, I have two modules one for each. - ccassa, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0you should log out if you get that message (via your gmail account) and then go to http://calendar.google.com
- jaydee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0anyone know of a way of synching google calendar with MS outlook? I can import the calendar no problem but as i use a PPC the google calendar gets out of sync real easy and its more trouble than its worth.
- ColinmH, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Thanks alot man, it works great now
- diggduggjoe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0With all the effort the government spends demanding records and making laws forcing ISPs to store our online histories, why woud you want your schedule on Google?
Let's just save big brother some time and post our itineraries on a FBI calendar site. - ColinmH, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Is the Google Calendar even working? I try to go to the site and it shows me a "sorry message" ?
This is the site I'm going to :
http://www.google.com/calendar/render or http://www.google.com/calendar
"Calendar is unavailable right now, please try again in a few moments" - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0RSS feed is not ordered by event datetime - it is ordered by entry date. I do not know if this is an intened behavious or not. Also - the RSS feed gives _all_ events, not just upcoming.
Does anyone know if there is a way to customize your feed content (ie show only 2 days of events, show future events, dont show events with Label XYZ, etc) - karjala, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Is there no webservice to add/view google calendar events?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -14/+6Must be a slow day for news on digg
- denzel, on 10/12/2007, -10/+1Google Calendar release, I read about all google software on usb disk ...
