The Good Good Things Calendar
The Good Good Things Calendar lists events that are fun to anticipate. In general, these events are:
- Recurring, ideally on the same day every year (“every first Monday in May” or “every 23 April”)
- Ideas rather than location-specific events (“the anniversary of Shakespeare's birth” or “Public Domain Day”)
- Free to anyone who wants to participate
- Linkable (either to a website or a Wikipedia entry)
- Good things. But not just good: really, really good.
The calendar is named after the song “Good Good Things” by the Descendents.
The name “Disappearing Moment” aludes to a quote by composer Benjamin Boretz: “In music, as in everything, the disappearing moment of experience is the firmest reality.”
