Desktop Calendar as Weblog Interface?

I haven’t had nearly enough wacky programming ideas recently. Here’s one:

  1. Apple is rolling out iCal, a free calendar application, for Mac OS X 10.2 (aka Jaguar)
  2. All weblogs have calendars
  3. What if iCal could be an interface to a weblog?

I don’t have Jaguar yet, but it might be interesting to play with this. Maybe an RSS aggregator that converts individual blog postings to vCal; maybe just a batch downloader that you run every couple of weeks that uses the Manila APIs. We’ll see where things go.
