Jordi,

the original email had the emacs lisp defadvice function (see below)
as well as the activation of that function.  The advice is called
"add-to-google-calendar".  All you have to do is execute both bits,
not just the last line as the last line assumes you have defined the
advice already.

I hope that makes sense?
