I had an idea the other day and i recon it would make a great addition to esato. I think it would be nice to have a page setup that displays a calendar of the whole year. On this calendar can be put the estimated release dates for new phones (i know it would only be a rough guide but still usefull), the dates new phones were announced (and links to the press releases & further info & pics), dates phones ceased production etc.... I think this would make a really interesting page to have on Esato giving you a rough idea of what is due to happen in the months ahead.
What you guys think?

Good idea, but a couple of problems comes to mind; who would be allowed to add entries, and who would be able to double check that entries are for real? I'm afraid a lot of entries will be release dates added out of made up rumours and members who think they heard something, somewhere, and believe adding an entry makes them important. Don't get me wrong, I like the idea but only if entries can be documented or the entries are based on facts like actual observations of a new phone being seen in a shop.

i would say only mods and maybe axxxr get given the power to add info to the calendar. Memebers can then pm the mods or axxxr if they think they know something that is not already on the calendar. Allowing axxxr to add info to it would mean he could integrate any mobile related news stories he posts on the forum.

i think thats a great idea, and having axxxr in charge of it also seems good to me, though it would depend if he was up to the challenge

Why not using google calendar ? Specific calendar's can be made public so everybody can see them but I'm not surre if only the owner can add/edit the entry's.

@WelshTom
I thought this was an excellent idea! Thanks
The Esato Event Calendar is out. Nothing there yet. Let me know if you have any anything you want to add. Currently, only I am adding new events. I will add a couple of calendar administrators later when the system is tested more thoroughly. |
