I have created a shared calendar that all can use to enter their GTG's, vacations, birthdays. The link below will take you there. You are free to add in your items- include your screen name and keep it short. Will topp every day so people will begin to use it. Save the link as one of your favorites and then add in your events as they come up. I have added my trip in March 2009 so check that out to get an idea of what to put in the calendar.

Calendar tips:

1) Please use the category field when creating your items. I have added a fourth category- "Other Events" for the misc. items now appearing.

2) please use the default colors that come with each category- this will maintain some order to the colors and allow you to more easily find GTGs (green), birthdays (lavender), vacations (blue) etc.

3) Please keep you description short as others may be posting on the same day. Use the pop up field to expand your text and add a URL if applicable

4) Comments and feedback are welcome- enjoy your Fodorite Calendar!

Great idea, Bill!

Even greater is that I could be one of the first from the Oz forum to add travel dates for our spur-of-the-moment upcoming trip to Norfolk Island

Rainy and cold here this Saturday, resulting in many hours to browse the 'net - and hey presto, instant holiday!

Love it!

Yes I was surprised how long it took to get the first Ozzie on the calendar.
