Way back in the 1900s, the calendar started life as a spreadsheet made for tracking events that I kept missing every year.

For a few years, I shared it with friends, and then in 2006, I decided to experiment with a full-size wall calendar that I would sell to the public.

Unlike almost all other sources of things to do, the calendar is ad-free. Our sole focus is helping YOU - the person looking for ways to connect with Austin.

And I think people appreciate a little less advertising in their lives sometimes.

I work with a great bunch of people, many of whom have been with me for over a decade.

The great team I work with also looks all over for great photos to include for you. Because we want you to hang it on your wall and be reminded of how Awesome Austin is - daily.

PS: If you like events, especially of the weird and experimental kind you can see what I’m up to on my blog, IRLXD.com
