An iCal/XML calendar for the Finnish hockey fans
May. 14th, 2006 | 02:42 pm
Here's a public iCal calendar for the Finnish hockey fans:
[iCal] [XML]
To make this work, select Subscribe to... in your calendar app, and then copy paste the appropriate url.
Currently the calendar holds the match schedule for the Finnish team, as listed in IHWC.net. The calendar is updated manually, so there could be some delays for the updates. But it is better than nothing, I hope.
NOTE: I did try to look for something similar, but could not find it... And, of course, I'd be more than glad to hear a similar service already exits!
ON THE IMPLEMENTATION: The calendar is currently hosted by Google Calendar and it follows iCalendar specification.

Testing OpenID
Apr. 2nd, 2006 | 01:26 pm
I finally registered to LiveJournal to try out some of the OpenID services. To make things work I added the appropriate links to my homepage (http://tommi.raivio.net):
I then tried out a couple of services that support logging in with OpenID. For those who are not familiar with this - you just provide your website URL while logging in. If your session with the OpenID server (in this case LiveJournal) is running you are automatically authenticated
So, I logged to http://zooomr.com, but the service itself seemed a bit stiffy. I also put up a wiki in http://tommi.schtuff.com - not that I have an idea what to do with it.
