Banking Deadline Calendar and Dashboard Countdown for Macintosh iCal

[iankh]

Just wanted to remind my fellow Mac users of a couple of handy tools.

I have created and published a banking deadline calendar for iCal, and I've also published it. By subscribing to it, you will automatically have the banking deadlines for all UYs added to your iCal. It is also perpetual and recurrs year after year.

The way I use it is I have set-up with an email alarm 14 days before the event, so it sends me an email, to my multiple email addresses to remind me that the deadline is approaching. This feature works even if you do not have iCal open, though your Mac does need to be turned on and running.

The link for this published calendar is:

webcal://ical.mac.com/iankh/DVC%20Banking%20Deadlines.ics

Please consult iCal help for subscribing, but you should be able to subscribe by clicking on the calendar menu and then subscribe. Just enter the link above, and the dates will appear in your calendar (check the last day of each month).

There is also a great Dashboard Disney Countdown Widget. I love it. It looks like a road sign at WDW. It can be found at:

Finally, there's a new Widget that does nothing except put a most excellent graphic of the monorail on the Dashboard. You can also change the color of the monorail. That can be found at:

That the latest, my fellow DVC Mac users!
