I was whining that nobody had converted the COGOP International Assembly program into some kind of calendar that could be viewed or added to a mobile device... so I started doing it.

You can VIEW it (or at least the beginnings of it, since I am off to bed and can't complete it tonight) in your browser HERE. (Click on an item for more details.)

If you want to SUBSCRIBE to the calendar, click HERE instead.

I'll try to complete it this week.

Okay, it's all done. (There are collateral events not listed, but the major parts of the program are defined.)

Someone wanted to know how this works... if you have a portable device that syncs a calendar/appointments with your computer, this can make things very simple.

(1) Use THIS LINK to subscribe to the COGOP Assembly calendar.

(2) The Assembly program schedule will be added to your calendar program as a series of scheduled events.

(3) Sync your Palm, iPhone, Blackberry, Treo or other calendar-enabled mobile device with your computer, and you will have the key events of the Assembly Program in your mobile calendar.

You can also go to THIS LINK to view the calendar online, and look at the lower left edge of the calendar for a link to download it as a file you can open/add to your standard calendar program.

Great idea! I used to just write down all my appointments when I have a busy week of conferences but I love to input them individually in my Treo so I don't have any other paperwork to keep up with.

I can't get either link to work (page not available)...Am I doing something wrong?

Can I get someone to actually try it, report back, and see if the links work?
They are working for me...

They worked for me. I thought it was super, I do have iCal though.

i subscribed to the assembly program and it shows all in pacific time zones. So here (or Central) it is and will be off. I know on my calendars and apt. I can put the time in and change the time zone it is held in and it automatically corrects it to show in in my time zone but that way it corrects for anyone subscribing.

Thanks.

I was going to ask about this. so for example, on Tuesday (12th), proxy registration starts at 1 central, 11 pacific - is this correct? (in my O2k7, I have a dual timezone view-preference setting in calendar mode)

Okay -- since you subscribed, can you check it now and see if the time zones refreshed? I have (I think) corrected that oversight. Let me know.

Link to subscribe not working for me, either. I can view the calendar.

Question: Is there a conversion necessary to get it to work with Palm OS?

I am not sure. Theoretically at least, if you use a standard calendar program in Mac/Windows, they save appointments and events in a standard format, and subscribing to a public calendar adds those appointment flags to your personal calendar... theoretically. If your computer normally syncs appointments to your Palm OS device, it should treat the imported/subscribed events just as if you entered them yourself.

This is my first attempt at this, so there are likely bugs to be worked out.

Pastor Gary,
Yes it looks great now. I had to look at it a few times after the refresh. I am in Eastern Time Zone and was having to then convert to the central that was in the program to make sure it was on 'my' calendar correct.

Thanks- Love it.

PG, are you the reason Mike Luthlie had a phone call about a calendar at IYC...WHILE WORKING HARD AT THE TIME!

I doubt it. I never mentioned this to anyone until I started setting it up... so who would have called, and why??

I did tell Shaun McKinley they have permission to link to it or add the calendar on COGOP.ORG as a convenience.
