Dallas Startup Week 2016 is coming up April 12-16 and there’s been a lot of excitement as the start approaches. There’s also been one loud, frequent and valid complaint that AllCal the calendar system in use by Dallas Startup Week this year sucks.

As a speaker who couldn’t find my own talk, I agree, but instead of complaining that AllCal’s lack of integration with other calendars like Google and Ical, awful non indexable iFrame embedded in the Dallas Startup Week website, confusing registration process and middle finger the AllCal web app gave to accessibility standards, I decided to just post the calendar.

I’m not going to roast AllCal further, I’ll leave that to the Expose UX Live event on the 14th, but It should be noted that after over two hours using OCR to convert screenshots to text and posting this blog post I’m creating a better user experience than the AllCal system. Yes, static text is better than that monstrosity.

*** Update*** Corrected the times and locations of several events and roasted the worst calendar app ever further, but it’s may get better. AllCal has announced a contest to fix the app.
