The new monthly SIG calendar below is a new feature that we have created using "Google Calendar".  There are several interactive features that are available with this calendar.  One is that you can click on a particular event to find out more information about it.  For other features and more information about using Google Calendar, please visit the Google Calendar Overview web page.

In some cases, the full SIG meeting description does not fit within the date block and therefore is partially blocked.  To view the full title and more information for any of the programs in the calendar, click on the description, or click on the "Agenda" tab at the top of the calendar to change the calendar view.

Below is a link for a printable copy of the monthly Google SIG calendar.  This will open a new Internet browser window, displaying the calendar by itself.  In order for the calendar to print properly, you will need to select "landscape" printing.  The landscape printing feature is accessed via the printer dialogue window.  To access this window, you need to select "Print" from the browser "File" menu or use the shortcut keystroke "CTL + P" and not use the "Print" toolbar button.  You will also find a "black & white" or "grayscale" printing feature in this window, if you would like to print the calendar and not use any colored ink.

For those using Internet Explorer version 7 there is an easy way to access these printing options and several others too!  Instead of choosing "Print" from the File menu, choose "Print Preview" instead.  This opens a new window displaying the web page and what it will look like printed out.  From this window you can select landscape printing, adjust printing margins, turn off the header and footer notations that normally print with web pages, and finally, be able to zoom in or out on the page.  125% of original size fills one page completely for a month with only 5 rows in the calendar - with 6 rows it continues to a second page.  The increased size though gives you extra room for each calendar day block, for penciling in your own activities.  It also increases the font size making it easier to read.  You will have to experiment a bit to find the best combination for yourself.

Finally, for those of you using Internet Explorer 7 and having problems finding the menu bar, press the "ALT" button.  What's a "Menu Bar" you ask, or want to find out how to make the menu bar stay in view?  Stop by the "Internet" or one of our other SIGs and ask the question!
