Hi folks,

What if we were to put a big Free Culture NYC googlecalendar as the
centerpiece of Freeculturenyu.org, so at least that part will remain
updated:

http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=phq0ns5irttct569qsrs4am5c8%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/New_York

It could just replace the 'OpenHatch.org Guest Speakers' post from
2010 as the current "headline" item.

Thanks,
Richard

I like that idea. I never realize that we have both
Freeculturenyu.org and nyu.freeculture.org

Yup! We've had both for ages. We've been meaning to do a revamp of the site for basically ever :)

It would be good if we could include the google calendar directly on
the page by gadget, as for example ISOC-NY and NYCresistor have done:

Thanks,

I could do that here: http://nyu.freeculture.org/2012/04/13/free-culture-nyc-calendar/
I'm not sure how to put that on the front page :( Somebody able to edit the wordpress page?

when I load that page in, Chrome says "this page is in German. Would
you like to translate?" ! I guess it's "wikigangs"..

There's a typo there " current evens"

To add on the front page it's a question of using that same embed code

<iframe src="https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?src=phq0ns5irttct569qsrs4am5c8%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/New_York"
style="border: 0" width="800" height="600" frameborder="0"
scrolling="no"></iframe>

but adjusting the height and width to, say, 310 x 400, and then using
a text widget to put it in the right hand column

Also, this might be useful for embedding:

Also, freeculturenyu.org is still un-updated with the new calendar info.

And, on another note, for some reason nyu.freeculture.org is being
blocked by the New York Public Library :(

Thanks,
Richard
