MyCourses currently has no iCal functionality. iCal is simply a standard that lets you download a calendar feed and add it to your online calendar app of choice. I have an iPhone and currently use iCal to sync my google calendar with Tiger Center, allowing me to instantly view my class times and locations via my calendar app. Imagine the same functionality but for all your MyCourses assignments. Due dates for all your own assignments would appear instantly on your phone's lock screen.

Retrieve assignment data from MyCourses assignments page and create an iCal feed out of it
Allows students to add their MyCourses assignments to their Google calendar
Synchronization with smartphones (iPhone or Android) would allow instant access to all your upcoming assignment information with a single swipe

This would include using some external resources for creating the feed, but overall I think this would be really useful. If we make this I'd use it on a daily basis.

This is a very good idea the whole team agrees and maybe it can be a feature for #9

9 is a duplicate of #3. This could be a feature for #3
