roadrunnertwiceIf you use Google Calendars, Apple's iCal, or presumably any weird devices like a Treo or a Blackberry, you can import any calendar information that someone's bothered to format as an .ics file. There's a service that'll do this with your Facebook friends' birthdays, which I've found quite useful, and I thought it'd be nice to get my LJ friends that way so I could have all the birthdays I care about in the same place.
No such luck. Someone suggested this a long time ago, but no progress was made. So I rolled my own! lj2ics is now available at the link and free to use.
The only problem is that it requires ruby, rubygems, and the icalendar and hpricot gems, and I don't expect a whole lot of you have all that. So check out the next post if you want a hand with that...
