How to syndicate your online calendar to ExampleNewspaper.com

Traditionally we've asked you to tell us about events by using our online form, or by sending us email. But if you already maintain your own online calendar, you won't want to retype that information.

Good news! You don't have to. All modern calendar programs can publish feeds that enable us to gather your information automatically. Once you tell us the URL of your calendar, we'll know about all future events you post to that calendar.

And if you don't already maintain an online calendar, you might want to start one by following any of the examples on this page. It's a great way to:

1. Manage your own events
2. Publish events on your own website
3. Transmit events to other websites, including ExampleNewspaper.com

Here's the scenario for all of our examples:

1. Sally manages the calendar for the Keene Book Club
2. The club holds regular meetings every Monday night
3. There are also occasional guest lectures
4. The club posts these events to its own website, keenebookclub.org

Here are four ways Sally can maintain her own online calendar and also relay the event information automatically to ExampleNewspaper.com:

• Google Calendar
• Windows Live Calendar
• Apple iCal
• Outlook 2007
