Twittercal connects Twitter to your Google Calendar
If you're a Twitter user we have yet another Twitter tool for you to use, the Twittercal.Twittercal connects your Twitter account to your Google Calendar through the power of Ruby on Rails and Java. The tool will automatically pick up and add events from your Twitter client, whether its web or desktop based and drop them onto your Calendar.
To start things off you must have a Twitter account. Then by adding 'gcal' as a friend and granting access to your Google Calendar, a bot will forward messages to your Calendar. So for instance, if you type in "d gcal meet Britney at Starbucks today at 9pm", the event will get directly added to your schedule.
In order for everything to completely work, Twittercal does require you to grant access to your Google Calendar account. There could also be a slight delay of a few minutes in messages sent to your calendar, and you can revoke access to your calendar anytime if you aren't impressed with the service.
