30 Boxes and MySpace — Share Your Calendar!April 5th, 2006 by Narendra |
We just put out a flash widget that you can show off on your MySpace account. It is simple, visit My Settings > Sharing and choose a calendar view. If you aren’t comfortable sharing your entire calendar, you can create a view based on a tag or set of tags. Under each view, you’ll find a MySpace Flash Badge link that gives you the code. Visit MySpace, edit your Profile > About You section and paste the code in there!
It is a pretty basic replica of our html badges that makes smart use of our existing RSS feeds. Any flash wizards out there are free to tweak and upgrade it. Here is the .fla file for anyone who wants to play around.
If you make use of the new badge, let us know in the forum.
30 Boxes!

This is nice, but I think it that the recent MySpace privacy concerns only accentuates that 30boxes desperately needs a way to “reset” the URL, or turn it off altogether.

I really think you should order events by date. They appear in a random order for me, on both this new flash badge and on my google homepage.

In other news…no known progress on the enhancement of Repeatability, a crucial feature many people have asked for over and over in the Forums.
[Narendra: slightly passive aggressive, no? We added a fair amount of repeats and have been working hard on a bunch of other things including webcal and email to calendar before considering if we want to replicate the very arcane attributes of Outlook]

a screenshot of what it looks like would be nice.

I second the ordering. Not just on the badges, but within 30b! I can’t believe that appt. appear in the order that they are entered. It makes a scan of the daily view a lot harder.

The ordering has been fixed for the website. Please report any further bugs in the forum. Thanks.

I’d love to do that on LiveJournal.

Is this Flash file compatible with Flash MX? I can’t seem to open it.

I can open and edit this file in Flash 8. However, anything swf I create and try to use doesn’t display any dates.
I even downloaded your swf file (the one that works) and ran it off my server - no dates showed up.
Does your server somehow block script access from external sites?
