Beeplet: timed alerts

Someone has written a modern notification service, called Beeplet.

You can feed it events via an RSS feed, which is something modern web calendaring systems are now supporting.

You can also do it using Javascript. The API for that is mentioned below. Chase the link to the site and you can see an example.

Beeplet: timed alerts:

You can add a button to Beeplet in your own site. This way Beeplet users can automatically add your events or reminders to their alert list!

It seems like a nice idea. Looks like he is following the component maxim, "do one thing, and do it well."
