LITA Blog

For all of the LITA members visiting Anaheim with us in a couple of weeks that haven’t planned your days yet, BIGWIG has put together a Google Calendar with all of the LITA events listed. Why did we bother? Well, for those of us that use Google Cal, it makes planning your LITA stuff as easy as clicking and selecting “add to my calendar”.

Plus, the Google Calendar is available in a myriad of forms…you can Embed it in a webpage (as we did over at YourBIGWIG), you can look it up on your mobile phone, you can sync it with a number of other calendar applications. It’s a really flexible way of displaying the data, which is something we can all get behind, right?

The calendar is public, so if you search for BIGWIG you’ll find it, but you can link directly to it in the following ways: HTML :: XML :: iCal

The one problem is that Google Calendar only allows a calendar to be in one timezone…so the entries for the gCal are East Coast time…not Pacific. It displays the times depending on the timezone of your computer, so there can definitely be weirdness. Pay attention, though, and you should be fine.
