# monkeythorn.com/calendar James Tannahill's request page, made by MonkeyThorn. It shows his open times for the next five weekdays and lets a visitor ask for a short video call. Open times come from his iCloud and Google calendars, refreshed every 5 minutes. Only free time is shown; existing meetings are never exposed. Working hours: Monday through Friday, 9 AM to 5 PM Eastern (America/New_York). The page shows times in the visitor's own time zone. How a request works: - Pick a length (5, 15 or 25 minutes), a day and a start time. - Add a topic, a name and an email; a note is optional. - James reviews every request by hand. Nothing is booked until he approves it; the invite then arrives by email for MonkeyThorn Meet or Zoom. - Requests need at least 4 hours' notice. Share links (monkeythorn.com/calendar/s/...) carry a few times James picked for one person; they work the same way. Machine-readable open times: https://monkeythorn.com/calendar/feed.json
