Need help with a Calendar

topic posted Sat, April 12, 2008 - 10:50 AM by 
Hi everyone,
does anyone have any good ideas about creating a schedule or calendar where people can upload their own info onto the WHD site about their 888 event?

Last year was hard updating it daily and even harder the closer it got. I would really like to have people be able to edit their event themselves with their name, contact info, url, time and location.

I know google calendar can do that, but it gets very tight and claustrophic. I was also thinking of adding a forum so people could list it there, but I really liked how it was categorized by continent and state. And trying to find something that is free is also a challenge, which google is.

Or if someone just wants to take over recording the times for everyone, that would be groovy too.
Please reply if you have any advice, thoughts, etc.

    I'm not sure exactly what type of forum/calendar you're looking for, but along the same lines as the Google calendar, they also have spreadsheet and documents which work as a sort of wiki. Perhaps creating different documents for each state or region and then allowing them to coordinate their own sheets would be more manageable. Each document is listed under the creator (which would be you) and all invited users could login and make additions/changes to the documents. I find this extremely useful in my daily life, but don't know how feasible it is for something of this magnitude.
