These are schedules, provided in both iCalendar (.ics) and vCalendar (.vcs) formats, for the 2009-2010 NHL San Jose Sharks. They’ve been tested with all flavors of Microsoft Outlook, Google Calendar, iCal, and Palm Desktop, but there’s no reason they shouldn’t import into any PIM software or online calendar that can import iCalendar or vCalendar files. Each game includes the opponent, start time (and a three-hour window for the appointment), venue, any TV coverage the game will have between Comcast Sports Net California (or CSNCA+), Versus, NBC, and those outlets used by NHL Centre Ice (for those games which are not being shown local to the Bay Area). For our Canadian friends (and those of us lucky enough to get CBC on our cable), we also have the coverage on CBC and TSN / TSN2 (and RDS and RIS for the Francophones!), and the Canadian version of NHL Network. (If you’re in the US and crave Canadian coverage, CBC’s Hockey Night in Canada and TSN’s Wednesday Night Hockey are simulcast on the American NHL Network.) Of course, you’ll know if the game will be available in Glorious Hi-Def™. Plus, if you have some sort of device (PDA, smartphone, iPod, you name it) that syncs to a calendar, you’ll be able to take this with you!

Version 2.1 of my Jeopardy Challenger for Windows, based on an electronic toy I had as a child used to keep score along with the show as you watch Jeopardy on TV. I redid this new version in Visual Basic 2005 (the original Challenger was done in Visual C++.NET), and I’m rather happy with that decision, as I ran into far fewer syntax issues with VB. Please let me know what you think of it, if you come across any bugs, and if you have ideas for features I might be able to work into future versions!
