Notes and Jottings

A mail I just sent Diego’s way - now I don’t know - maybe spaces ALREADY has this feature. Anyway the mail follows.

Hi Diego,

It needs iCal support I also have to write a screen-scraping tool to convert entertainment.ie’s cinema timetable…

An easy way to subscribe/unsubscribe to/from online iCal calendars would also be useful, so then I can put each cinema into its own iCal file and you can then select the cinemas in your area and see whassegoin’ on.

Bah, if only Netsoc were still doing the cinema timetable… oooh it’s BACK! Cool. I can try to persuade them that everybody needs iCal format as well as HTML - I think the convincing will be rather easy… it removes the ability to work outside Dublin, but won’t be pissing off entertainment.ie, and it’ll be more robust.

That’s enough for now. I’m getting a little interested in the whole data aggregation idea
Gary.
