Bill's Gigulator

Bill's Gigulator allows you to publish your shows and posts several different ways.  It works with squarespace, wordpress, and of course custom sites. 

Json Feed - Data is presented as a JSON Feed. This requires a programer but it is totally customizable. Paging and filtering can be controlled via the url.

Html stream - Data is sent as HTML.  This is not a page just data.  Bill has chosen the markup and css for you.  You must figure out how to style it and wrap an html page around it. The encoding is utf-8. This is not an html page, you have to fetch the stream using javascript or php etc, create your own page and then display this stream. Many layout, filtering, paging options can be controlled via the url.

Javascript - **BETA**. Bill has written a javascript file/function that will fetch an Html Stream for you.  And yes it works with Square space. 

iCal Subscription - This is an ".ics" feed intended for private use. It allow the gigulator to display your schedule information on iCal/Google Cal or other calendar's that support ics subscriptions.  Currently Google Cal is buggy, iCal works great and is one of Bill's favorite features. 

Iframe Shows, Iframe Posts - Requires HTML, and optionally a CSS style Sheet. This is the easiest and quickest way to display your schedule. The con is you have some limited choices in the way the data is displayed. Search engines won't be able to see your info so well and there is no auto height, so you will need ugly scroll bars.  No one really uses this anymore.

RSS Feed - Users can subscribe to your RSS feed. You can also find widgets on Facebook/Myspace to display your calender. Yes I said myspace back in the day that had an RSS Feed plugin.  No one really uses this either.
