calendar.am -- Armenian Calendar of Events, Worldwide

[Cilician]

Hi folks, I just wanted to let you know about a new website I launched in September which has a seperate Calendar of Events for *every* single Armenian community in the world. It is a really nice site to navigate, people can add their own new events, view by day, week, month, etc. Anyway, feel free to check it out, add your events (or all the events going on in your community) and please pass on the word. With a single clearinghouse for Armenian events our events themselves will become more successful (since more people will know where to find out about them) and we will have a complete choice of what is going on to choose from.

 

Hope you all like it as much as I do,

like i said, nice idea, Raffi jan, just maybe add the link to go back to the main page once you select a certain area (i had to use back button to return to the main menu).. apart from that, simple and straight to the point though completely lacks design line (which is a miss, cuz Calendar can be so nicely designed

 

good luck to this new project, I will happily add new events in Israel (if there will be any related to us)...

Thanks Ruben,

 

I may do a complete site redesign, but I will not add any links back to the front page until I have a much better internet connection! :-)

I like the idea of the site, but i find it incaccurate or more precisely incomplete for it lists only events organized by the AGBU while the ARF and other parties organize more events which should be considered "adequate" to be listed. Example, for Montreal, we have only the AGBU bazar listed and not the ARS bazar which is the biggest in Montreal.

Thanks exactly it Hayemyes, this site gives YOU (meaning anybody and everybody) the ability to add any event you know of. So YOU should add those events you know of that are not on there yet. Nobody is in charge of adding events, it is on a voluntary basis, so if one organization is better at adding their events, that will make their events more successful.

 

It is still a relatively new site, only 2 months old, but the LA, San Francisco, and Yerevan Calendars are quite active... other calendars are a bit more scattered, but I think it is only a matter of time before all of the communities and organizers discover this resource and utilize it. As I said, it is an open calendar and therefore completely unbiased!
