It's only been a week since we
announced support for exporting events to Yahoo! Calendar and Rabble before that, and now we're excited to announce we've added support for exporting events to the brand-new Google Calendar service as well.
As you surf around Eventful.com and find events you're really interested in, wherever you see a plus button
or a plus-minus button
, on event detail pages, event search results, and various other places on the site, you'll now be able to export to Google Calendar via those buttons.
When you click on the button, you'll get a little panel popping up on the page, and at the bottom of the panel, you'll see a set of links for exporting the selected event to remote calendars, now including Google Calendar. Of course, you'll need an account with Google to have a Google Calendar and as with the other services it'll ask you to sign in first if necessary.
Our goal is to continue to add more calendar services to export to. Have a favorite that you use all the time that you'd love to see us support? Let us know!
Other News: More Feeds
You're going to notice all over the site that we've expanded ways you can syndicate the content you find on the site. For instance, we've launched an Atom feed that's compliant with Google Calendar. There's also now a CSV file which is mainly useful for exporting lists of events such as search results and calendars of events into some other service.
Let us know what you think of these new enhancements and also be sure to let us know if there are things you'd like to see us add to Eventful.
