							<blockquote><p>In the end, if <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/3639679.stm">70% of the people will give their password for a chocolate bar</a>, why not at least help them do it from multiple computers? Thanks Google Browser Sync.</p></blockquote>

							<p><a href="http://randomchaos.com/software/firefox/greasemonkey/googlehcalendar/">Google hCalendar</a> is a Firefox Greasemonkey script I made. It looks for <a href="http://www.randomchaos.com/microformats/base/?key=vevent">pages with</a> <a href="http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar">vevents</a> and inserts a button to add each found event to Google Calendar. <strike>I'm still working out some time zone oddities</strike> Apparently many of the sites using hCalendar have improper time zone markup (e.g. every event is marked as <a href="http://www.google.com/search?q=define:utc">UTC</a>-7 at <a href="http://upcoming.org/">Upcoming.org</a>), but it otherwise seems to work fine. Now I'm looking forward to my <a href="http://microformats.org/discuss/mail/microformats-discuss/2006-April/003669.html">free book</a>. Oddly enough, I'm actually working on another project right now in exchange for free magazines. You can keep your <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention_economy">attention economy</a>; I'm going back to bartering. Will code for interesting reading.</p>

							<p>At first <a href="http://typewriting.org/2005/10/16/Search_for_Search/">I didn't like</a> the results Google recently started inserting for searches I maybe should have made instead of what I actually searched for. I'm pretty smart, you see, and I don't need to be bothered by Google treating me like a fool, assuming I don't know what I'm looking for.</p>
<p>And that was basically my thinking up until I searched for something unfamiliar and wasn't entirely clear what I was looking for, and Google gave me some results for what I would have been searching for if I knew what I was doing. At that point I found the functionality very useful.</p>
