SUNDAY, AUGUST 6, 2011what's up for the yearIf you're like me, you need to see "the big picture." Usually over the winter months, I start sketching out my plans for the whole year. For example, I try to tie camping trips to good night skies. I use a combination of technologies. I maintain a set of events in a Google Calendar layer called "astronomy" (surprise, surprise); I use a Yahoo!Widget to monitor this calendar. It's in my face, visible on my regularly used computer(s), it catches my eye, every day. I'm more dialled now. For significant events, I make the calendar e-mail me reminders! Why not regularly view my shared read-only Google Calendar. It supports Week, Month, and Agenda (list) views.
The calendar is shown above in an "iFrame." Your browser may not support this unconventional style. The calendar is written primarily for the south-western Ontario locale.
