Cool! Is there any way you want the data formatted if you're going to scrape it that way or is it just ignoring line breaks for some reason?

I think its better. The plugin i use doesnt really have a function to turn urls into links, but i think you can at least view the info and add a little ics to add to your own cal.

Just to reiterate in response to some feedback I've gotten over Twitter throughout the day:

I only intend for the calendar to be a data source, I'm not planning on building any website around it, but you are welcome to use this data in any way you see awesome. Just share whatever you make with the rest of us!
The location field is filled out to be the most accurate street address I can find for the venue. The point of this is so that if you're subscribed to the calendar on a mobile device, you can tap the address and it should open up and find the correct location in your map application of choice
I'll try to include a non-Facebook URL alongside the event whenever possible. I understand people might not want to log in to Facebook to see event details, but sometimes it's all that's provided

I'm glad so many people find it useful, please tell event organizers about it, or fill out the information yourself if you know of an event that isn't listed!
