DOWNLOAD: Steelers 2012-13 Schedule for Outlook!

The NFL released the official 2012-13 schedule today, and once again I was ON IT! The new Steelers schedule for Outlook is ready to go in near record time!

The download is available in the traditional CSV format (used by Microsoft Outlook and Yahoo! Calendar) as well as the iCal format (used by Google Calendar and iTunes\iPhone). Be sure to choose the correct version when you download!

The CSV version of the schedule is compatible with Microsoft Outlook 98 or later. It might also work with any calendar app that can import from CSV files; it has only been tested with Outlook 2010, however.

The iCal version of the schedule has not been tested at all. I used this handy online tool to convert the CSV to iCal format, so if there are any problems with the iCal version, please take it up with the webmaster there!

Both schedules contain all preseason and regular season Steelers games as well as the name of the network airing the game. All times are for the Eastern (USA) time zone. A reminder is also scheduled for 8:00PM the day before each game. Note that the start times for three of the Steelers’ four preseason games are unknown at this time, and are listed as “TIME TBA” in the calendar. UPDATE: I’ve found the start times for the preseason games, and also marked the potential flex-time games with an asterisk. If you downloaded the calendar before 23:20 on 04/17/2012, please download the updated version below!

There are two versions of each type of schedule: the Steelers 2012-13 schedule only and the 2012-13 Steelers schedule with the NFL playoffs and Super Bowl XLVII. Pick your poison by clicking the appropriate link below:

CSV (OUTLOOK FORMAT):

Steelers 2012-2013 Schedule
Steelers 2012-2013 Schedule with NFL Playoffs

iCAL (GOOGLE\IPHONE FORMAT):

Win7: Changing the “Shut Down” Button

OK, this might be the lamest tip ever, but did you know that you can change the default setting for the “Shut Down” button in the Windows 7 Start Menu? Just right-click the Shut Down button, select “Properties” and choose whichever action you’d prefer from the drop-down box:

Kind of nifty, especially if you use a pre-Windows key keyboard like myself:
