That's why I have no pity for you Jay when you complain about last.fm's radio selection... listen to music podcasts instead! The Yahoo groups calendar is horribly neutered. No automatic way to export it into any format, let alone .ics. Microsoft should totally do something about that after the hostile takeover.

You can also get all your sonicliving feeds and stuff in ical format. On a side note theres a couple services and pieces of software i've seen that allows two way syncing between iCal and google calendar. If there's something similar on the outlook side that might work.

It won't talk to Outlook calendar. The practical answer is to buy H a new Mac and get a family .Mac account, but the point of my post is that it's just a bunch of dates and text fields. Why can't calendar programs all speak a common language? Yup. iCal will sync over .Mac or a standalone webDAV server, *but* it only syncs iCal files. It won’t talk to Outlook calendar.
