Free Things For You: Embeddable Mixtape + Show Calendars

On the pseudo-administrative tip, I wanted to mention a couple of new-ish things… Like the fact that we now have the little “player” version of the official, sporadically-updated SCR H-Town Mixtape up on the main page of the site for all to see, click, & enjoy. You can also check out the full-sized Opentape site at http://opentape.spacecityrock.com/, or embed the dang thing into your own blog/Myspace/online diary/whatever by copy-and-pasting the following code into your Webpage:

<br /> <object width="300" height="160"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://opentape.spacecityrock.com/res/jw_player.swf?playlist=bottom&displayheight=0&thumbsinplaylist=false&file=http://opentape.spacecityrock.com/code/xspf.php" /><embed src="http://opentape.spacecityrock.com/res/jw_player.swf?playlist=bottom&displayheight=0&thumbsinplaylist=false&file=http://opentape.spacecityrock.com/code/xspf.php" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="300" height="160"></embed></object><br />

In a similar vein, while I definitely do want folks to keep coming back to SCR, I can’t help but want to share the goodness of the also-official SCR Google Calendars, which you can subscribe to one or both RSS feeds using the reader of your choice:

• SCR Cool Shows
• SCR General Shows

As an added bonus, you can also embed both calendars into your own Internet thingy, so you can always have our most up-to-date-est show information close at hand. Just copy & paste the code below into some HTML, and you’re good to go:

<br /> <iframe src="http://www.google.com/calendar/embed?showTitle=0&showTabs=0&showTz=0&mode=AGENDA&height=1200&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23990000&src=bcu8grsnk0kpk8rri7fvvcenoc%40group.calendar.google.com&color=%23A32929&src=13l7sq6hmt9348g9aiogan1jd4%40group.calendar.google.com&color=%236E6E41&ctz=America%2FChicago" style=" border-width:0 " width="450" height="1200" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe><br />

Of course, these aren’t strictly new — I know I’ve blogged about ’em before — but now we’re actually opening up things a little and offering ’em up to anybody who wants to use ’em. All we’d ask (politely) in return is that if you embed the calendar somewhere, please link back to the SCR site in some way, eh? We do this because we love you, folks.
