I thought you said you usually don't launch on fridays ;) It looks nice. Is the back end code made in PHP? What's the point of having RSS feeds in a calendar? PS.

What’s the point of having RSS feeds in a calendar?

Some IE css bugs delayed everything (as always?) And yup - the backend is in PHP - using the Zend Framework's controller, and CakePHPs AppModel (a RoR rip-off). Having the capability of importing external RSS feeds to the calendar is very useful. Say that you are running some sort of interest group - could be the local Ruby On Rails brigade. One thing that you would like to put out for people to know is when to meet up and when there are other interesting events happening concerning your interest groups. But what is equally as important is to keep track of what each member in the interest group is blogging about concerning the interest groups field. Another example could be the the local soccer club wanting to subscribe to game results and have that in their calendar along with their own personalized information. A third example could be to subscribe to a flickr rss feed, so that these will automatically be inserted and shown along with your own events. As I said - the possibilities are many. Hope you will enjoy it! We don’t launch on fridays – the calendar was launched around noon at 12:00 – although I have to admit that the plan was to launch tuesday.
