    Great idea John. I’m a huge advocate of subscribable calendars (I recommend reading Scott Adams’ thoughts on the matter: http://dilbert.com/blog/entry/calendar_as_filter/) so am delighted to see you do this.
    I’ve tried a similar initiative myself in the past except slightly different because I wanted to empower other people to keep it updated – unfortunately that didn’t happen. I guess having a curator is the only way to ensure it is up to date.

    Can I make one request? I don’t use Google Calendar however that doesn’t mean I can’t use this. Every Google Calendar is exposed in iCalendar format which means that I can subscribe to it in my calendar – please could you edit this post with the iCalendar link (I don’t know how to find this link in Google Calendar but I’m sure its not difficult)?

    Thanks
    Jamie

      Yup, I’m subscribed (in Hotmail Calendar) and it filtered straight through to my phone. Love technology that is simple and works! Thanks.
