Lotus Greenhouse webcasts have a widget - can I get an iCal feed?


Tags :


Lotus Greenhouse has begun offering a widget for you to drag into your sidebar to get a news feed of the upcoming webcasts.

While this is nice, I would like to see this taken a step further and make it an iCal feed that I can take right into my Notes calendar and see it around my free times.  Remembering to peek at the sidebar feed would definitely slip my mind.  The feed reader in Notes is quite weak and it just makes more sense to have a direct calendar overlay to me.

Almost forgot to mention, you must also create (you are prompted) an authenticated HTTP account that gets stored locally to pull that feed.  If you change your Greenhouse password, you will need to change the password for that local account also. Also, don't forget to place the widget on all of your clients, or in the catalog pushed via policy, so it shows everywhere.
