Playing with iCalendar Feeds

We're talking about calendar management at work so I got to looking around at the iCalendar standard and its use. What I learned is that I am way behind the curve on this topic and that people have put some fantastic tools in place already.

Over at netvibes.com they offer a little portlet through which you can subscribe to different calendars offered in iCal format.

Google Calendars offers the ability to subscribe to external calendars in addition to those of other google users.

Outlook can handle individual iCal files, but using an extension called Remote Calendars I read about over at Wikipedia's article on iCalendar, you can subscribe to calendar feeds as well.

So to try this out, I am making a normal page (I will link to it here in a moment) into an "event" in Drupal, and then offering my iCal feed on my home page, or at least that is what I'm trying to do right now....
