Calendar extension for NewsGator

February 22nd, 2004 by gregr

Wow, I just get done talking about some cool extensions for NewsGator 2.0, and another one pops up.

John Bristowe and Jeff Julian have built an ESF extension for NewsGator. With this extension installed, if a feed publishes information about an event in a certain way, a new item will get added to Outlook’s calendar with the event details.

John has a sample feed and a screenshot in Outlook on his weblog…check it out. This is really beginning to demonstrate the power of RSS extensions, when used with an extension-aware client. Nice job, guys!
