vCalendar

I want to be able to share my calendar in iCal with other users, but I don't want to bring it into another program to export it as a vCalendar. Is there a plugin or something similar I could add to my computer that would change the format in only a few steps?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.5)

vCalendar is the precursor of the iCalendar format. Chances are if you publish from iCal, an application that understands vCal would interpret the format correctly.

If you explain a bit more about the applications your other users are using it might be possible to be more precise.

I want to be able to share my calendar with someone on a pc's Microsoft Outlook and, if possible, my phone. Also, the phone doesn't seem to recognize vCards. The phone is an LG Dare. Is there a way to do this?

If the PC user has Outlook 2007 then they can subscribe to a published iCal.

If they have Outlook 2003, there's a plug-in called iCalendar for MS Outlook at http://www.kenner-price.com/icalendar/

Sorry, I can't help you with the phone.
