Announcing: All NH Event Calendar

Feb 09, 2010 18 Comments by

With so many events going on in NH relevant to technology, social media and other interests, I thought it was high time to implement a state wide calendar. Hopefully this will do two things: 1) eliminate conflicting, similar events on the same day or night 2) help people find and share MORE awesome events around the state.

There are a few admins of the calendar who can edit the events you post (Myself, John Herman, Justin Herman, Christine Major, Nick Plante, Kelley Muir, Ted Roche, Kevin Micalizzi). We can also help you post an event if you find yourself “calendar challenged” by the Google Calendar event posting interface. Other people can post events but not edit (Don’t forget to set your event to “public” so we all can see it before saving, and to include an URL for more info in your description! Make it easy for people to come to your thing!).

Here is the plain html NH Calendar link for sharing in emails and tweets and such

Here is the iCal NH Calendar link

Here is what it looks like embedded and reduced to fit a blog post window (you can grab the iframe embed code from the share calendar button, or one of us can email it to you – standard embed width is 800px, this is shrunk to 400px):

We’re adding some of the existing events this evening, check back tomorrow night and if you don’t see yours yet – ADD IT. All of NH will thank you. :) Have fun!

Note: If you can’t add your event for whatever reason, any of the people listed here can add it for you – get us the details :)

Also, We’re getting a lot of emails about scheduling around school. We know parents will make it to these events if they can, and if not – there is always next month as many are recurring. We have a quite a few single and child free people who go to these various meetups as well, so there is a nice, diverse mix of people every month as schedules change and people’s availability rotates.

    Thank you very much for creating & posting this! I'll make sure we include #NashuaTweetup into the events monthly. :)

    You're welcome – if you have any trouble, DM me your email and I'd add you as a specific user. Same goes for others. I just added Joomla NH tonight, for example.

    Hi, you said others can post events? It doesn't look like I can post an event?

    If you are having trouble or Google is acting wonky, one of us can help by posting it for you. Send an tweet to me or email me with your issue? If you run a group, I can also add you to the edit privs list like I did for JoomlaNH and Nick who runs the NH Ruby Meetups.

    This is a great idea, Leslie. Thank you for putting it together.

    Glad y'all like it! If you see a calendar I've missed that fits the bill, all I need is the ics link to add it, if it's a public calendar.

    Hi there,
    It is not so much a dated event but I was hoping to share a submission made by Nashua's own Randy Pierce to the Teva Life Agent website. Yes, Teva like the sandal company is giving $10,000 to some adventurous people and we are trying to get as many positive notes as possible. I'd be greatly appreciative of any bandwidth you could add.

    Thank you!
    Tracy

    Great information, but for some reason the “plain HTML calendar option” is not showing. It is user error on my part?

    I'm not sure – it's working for me.
