Voeg het WK schema toe aan uw iPhone

Rutger — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 11:07:25 +0000

In juni begint het WK in Zuid Afrika. U wilt natuurlijk weten wanneer de wedstrijden zijn en liefst heeft u de wedstrijden in uw agenda staan in plaats van een separate iPhone app. Alle wedstrijden handmatig aan uw agenda toevoegen (met andere woorden: typen) is een optie maar als u ‘kalender wk’ naar 4411 sms-t sturen wij u de link waarmee u met 1 klik het wk schema aan uw native iPhone kalender (iCal) toevoegt. Het schema wordt automatisch ge-update voor volgende rondes, u hoeft geen apps te installeren en dat voor maar EUR 1,50.

Rutger — Tue, 29 Dec 2009 18:46:15 +0000

If you don’t want to miss out on any of the sports (Icedancing, skiing, curling (also a favorite), hockey, luge, figure skating, biathlon, snowboarding, short track, ski jump, bobsleigh, etc) visit the MarkThisDate download page and add the schedule to your calendar.

Great iCal Validator to test your ics files

Rutger — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 16:53:12 +0000

We get a lot of questions regarding the workings of iCal files (.ics). iCal files are the food for calendar apps. Calendar apps understand these files as having event related information in them (compare browser and .html). If you want to compose your own ics file first read the RFC. If you have written your ics file make sure to run it by the iCal validator. After you ran the validator and still have problems or questions don’t hesitate to contact us.

We passed 10.000 calendars and are still counting

Rutger — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 20:02:40 +0000

Without noticing we passed the 10.000 calendar mark on October 19th. We could and should have made a big deal out of it but unfortunately I just noticed. The honour goes to a 4th division Belgian Soccer team. Currently we have over 1500 calendars live; 8500 did their job and went to calendar heaven.
