Yahoo Calendar

While looking for reference material for Yahoo’s calendar I came across a 
similar
article to my own that covers the same ground. Is it a coincidence that the only
similar article I’ve found is from someone else in the UK?

Anyway, the components of the URL for inserting an event into a user’s Yahoo 
calendar
are these:
http://calendar.yahoo.com/?     - The location of this API
v=60    Seems to be required. Other values I’ve tried just failed rather than 
doing
anything interesting
DUR=0100    This is the duration of the event, in HHmm format. If you’re adding 
an
all-day event then don’t bother with this.
TITLE=My Event  Put the title of your event in here
ST=20070201     Start date/time, use either YYYYMMDD or YYYYMMDDTHHmmSS depending 
on
whether it’s an all-day event
in_loc=My House     Location of the event
DESC    Description of the event
URL     Page to link back to from the calendar

Insert test event into your Yahoo calendar.

UPDATE: Ryan McNallie has more information on his blog.

menu "Create Sabbath reminder in Yahoo Calendar" creates a calendar alarm for 
the
nearest Shabat.
