Google Calendar

I was inspired by a suggestion from Alan Gutierrez of ThinkNOLA to experiment a bit with Google calendar, which he may present at his Web Publishing Workshop.

I think it has potential, but when we spoke on the phone I had a vision of an even more full-featured civic calendar, that I will work out in some detail and share with the BlogNOLA list.

Anyway, if you have a Google login (for gmail for example; logins are free and painless to create) you can create a calendar and, using the button at right at either Alan's workshop or my birthday to you own Google calendar.

My own idea was for something that would allow a group to have a calendar, and have it tagged. For example, a neighborhood organization might have a calendar tagged MCNO, Civic, Mid City, New Orleans. From that's groups calendar (which only authorized memebers could edit), you could click a more button and view a calendar with a set of tags listed. By clicking a tag (Civic, Mid City) you could see a unified calendar that read in all of the events of of others with that tag.

From higher levels you would see all of the tag choices made by each calendar owners, so that things like Schools, Hospitals, Businesses might be added to the tag list. Clicking Schools would take you to a calendar showing all of the events tagged School. From the associated tag list, you might choose Uptown to limit your view to school events tagged Uptown, or click Lusher to see just Lusher events.

I'm a project manager sort of guy, not a coder, so I don't know the complexity of what I'm proposing, but I'd like to hear your feedback.

She proceeds laughingly to relate how her husband at an inn table had made the acquaintance of an artist, who insisted upon painting his portrait because he, the http://startso11.info/www.bigdutchman.de.html painter, had never found such an expressive head.. Up here we don't http://startso11.info/pods%C5%82uchy.html look at things just as you people do..

Some of the jests to which we have listened are not new to me, though I dare http://startso11.info/firma+CSS.html say you may not have heard them often before.. So back to town went Elder Brown, not in the order of the early morn, but http://startso11.info/www+grono+net.html silently, moodily, despairingly, surrounded by mental and actual gloom..

I beg to repeat my request relative to your quitting the http://startso11.info/pompy+hydrauliczne.html apartment.. A portion of the infantile emotions has been withheld from this procedure as http://storyah44.info/proces+informacyjno+-+decyzyjny.html useless to life, and all the thoughts which flow from these are found in the state of repression..

But the dream gives something more than the choice, http://startso11.info/www.astro.com.pl.html for here the desire is already realized; its realization is real and actual..

Wishes and phantasies are not http://startso11.info/statut+szko%C5%82y+z+2006r..html infrequently employed in the erection of this facade, which were already fashioned in the dream thoughts; they are akin to those of our waking life--day-dreams, as they are very properly called.. And now let me wish you a very http://startso11.info/legnica.html good afternoon.. III WHY THE DREAM DISGUISES THE DESIRES In the foregoing exposition we have now learnt something of the dream work; we must regard it as a quite special psychical process, which, so far as we are http://rebestal.info/decathlon+wroclaw.html aware, resembles nothing else..
