[5:00 PM] Share Your Calendar Of Events On The Web With iCalendar

Yenco.com has announced the release of iCalendar. iCalendar is a shareware app that allows individual and groups to share their calendar of events over the web. According to Yenco.com:

YENCO.COM and Simcor are proud to announce the release of iCalendar for Mac Version 1.0! This shareware product enables individuals, groups, and organizations to easily share their calendar events with the world of internet users! The product features a variety of controls to easily customize the appearance and content of calendars. It generates industry-standard JPEG calendar images, HTML calendar and event pages, and links the events to the calendar by automatically creating an ImageMap.

Jim Sims, owner of Simcor.com, stated "This is a very useful application for organizations! Give a team manager a copy of this with a set of icons that relate to his team and it will be a great time saver. Imagine, a Little League Baseball team with icons for 'won' 'lost', 'home', 'away' and other icons - this is great tool for letting the parents know what is happening with the team."
