The latest tips and news from the Blogger team
It's a date!
September 11, 2009
by Ross Peter Nelson, Software Engineer, Google Calendar
Do you have an event you'd like to invite your readers to? Thanks to Blogger Gadgets, this is now a piece of cake. Click the
Customize
link in the toolbar, and go to the
Layout
tab. There, you'll see the
Add a Gadget
link. The Event Gadget is currently one of the featured gadgets, or you can add it directly by clicking "add your own" and entering the URL
http://www.google.com/ig/
modules/calendar/socialevent/
bloggerevent.xml
. You'll then be taken to a configuration page that lets you enter information about your event. Once you click
Save
, it will be visible on your blog for everyone to see.
The gadget allows your readers to indicate whether they are going to attend the event, and lets them see which of their
FriendConnect
friends will be there too. In addition, anyone with a Google Calendar account can simply click a link to have that event added to their Google Calendar.
You can add multiple events to your blog as long as you give each one a different title or ID, and we'll keep track of who's attending which one.
This is one of many features announced as part of
Blogger's 10th birthday
. Happy Birthday!
