Online calendars

I get asked frequently how I incorporate calendars and event lists into some of the websites that I design. It’s really pretty simple after you’ve worked through the process once. I use CalendarHub for event lists (it’s free!), I was using Trumba for MonticelloLive’s community calendar (a paid service, but full of features). Recently, I’ve been using Airset for several projects, especially for coordinating a calendar with lots of folks. It works great for church use, but its learning curve for the casual user is steep. It’s not very intuitive (aka, very un-Maclike).
Here’s an excellent article on dozens of other online calendar options out there.
Here’s an article related to this that I wrote a while back.

Good article. I’m currently using the .Mac iCal web publishing feature, but when my .Mac subscription expires I won’t be renewing and I’ll be checking out the sites you mentioned.

Yup, pretty much same thing happened here. I just got tired of paying for .Mac when they are so many excellent FREE solutions out there!

Jeff - I agree. Especially now that someone has won the NotMac challenge, it’s making less and less sense to pay for .Mac. It’s great that I’m not paying $100 for a gig of storage (which was utterly ridiculous) but other than that it’s not worth it.

On the subject of calendars, the new version of iCal is simply great. The integration with Mail and Address book is fantastic.
