It's a Date
Today we made several improvements to the City Guide, all informed by your feedback. Most notably, we've made our events calendar and movie showtimes search tool more prominent. On the detail page for every movie, for example, Spider-Man 3, we moved the Showtimes and Tickets tool to be right above the editorial review, and on the Browse Movies page, we moved the showtimes search to the top, above the browse links. The searchable events calendar -- which has information on about 1,000 events at any one time -- is the heart of the City Guide. To help you find the best things going on each day, we made our calendar larger and moved it to the top right of the City Guide main page. Just click on a date to find events for that day.
As always, we're eager for your feedback, so leave us comments here or e-mail your thoughts to CityGuideHelp@washingtonpost.com.

The experts behind the Going Out Guide post daily on news and trends in D.C.'s arts and entertainment scene, upcoming events and restaurant and bar openings.











It would make my day if the City Guide's calendar events included an export link to push an event to one's Google Calendar, Yahoo! Calendar, etc. Other sites liked Yahoo!'s Upcoming have that functionality.
It saves me buckets of time when I don't have to copy and paste between two windows, especially when I see more than one interesting event.
