Need a website events calendar that can be updated by client.

Hi there -

I have built a website for an author who has many book signing & reading events each month. She wants to be able to update the Events page of the website herself, but has no experience with web design, ftp, or DreamWeaver.

Is there a simple, good looking, web based events calendar that I could incorporate into the design and show her how to use?

Thanks!

Can you use google calendar?

I haven't used Google calendar yet, no. Do you think this would be a good way to solve the problem?

I'm no web designer but it certainly should be simple enough for them to use. They will need a gmail account (but who doesn't have one of those! ). Then I think you can embed the calendar on the site somewhere. The only concern might be customizing the look of the calendar to fit into the site.

I've taken a look at Google calendar and it even has an events-specific option.
This may work out very nicely. I'll see what my client thinks of it.

Thanks for the suggestion!

(And ... yer panda is great!)
