iCalShare: Re-launched Subscription Based Calendar's

 
iCalShare was first introduced in 2002 and spotlighted by Steve Jobs during Apple's 2003 keynote event. The site was created by Patrick Crowley, a technologist and long-time Mac user.

After a long absence iCalShare.com has relaunched with new search tools and an improved user interface. iCalShare is dedicated to sharing calendars for use in applications like iCal, Google Calendar, or Outlook among dozens of other web and desktop apps. The site contains over 3,500 calendars across 40 different categories from Academics to Television. Calendars are free to download and can be used with any desktop or website application that can import iCalendar files.


How it works: 

Just search the site for a calendar of your choosing, click 'subscribe' and that calendar will automatically be added to your iCal. Since it's a subscription-based calendar, it will automatically update whenever the author edits the calendar. You can also create and share your own calendars on iCalShare with friends, family, or co-workers for free after registering with the site. Whether you're a Harvard student, a DC Young Democrat, or a movie buff, there's a calendar for you.
