Rails Model for Facebook "robot" as mentioned in #3
https://github.com/calagator/calagator/blob/master/app/models/source_parser/facebook.rb
alexdresko [3:51 PM] Actually, meetup.com can be handled easier now that I look a little closer. Meetup.com exposes RSS feeds for groups.. Zapier.com (which is SUPER SUPER SUPER awesome) can consume RSS and post new entries directly to slack channels.. NEW MESSAGES
alexdresko [3:54 PM] Zapier also supports facebook pages....and google calendar, which can consume iCal, which would also then allow posting to slack..
alexdresko [3:55 PM] codeforgreenville/upstateevents DONE! :simple_smile:
alexdresko [3:59 PM] And, of course, slack can export all day in real time to your own hosted API, which could then surface that data as a central "Greenville" API/webhook for others to consume..
Closing this issue.
For history, see above. For future conversation see the facebook.com API bot and Ed's new upstate_tech_cal_service repo.
