A lot of events or things that I would put on my calendar have events that are associate with them in some way.

Maybe a professor could mark up his course outline with a ToDo microformat. The user could then easily grab the ToDos and load them into his/her Outlook or TadaList.

If you're interested in a to-do microformat, you might want to start documenting examples of online to-do list markup and existing to-do list formats. For an example of the latter, there's a to-do component in vCalendar which was never incorporated into hCalendar. See:

Cool, cheers Scott,

I'm going to make a start getting a few examples together in answer to the two questions in that section. I've only used basecamp and mozilla sunbird for this kind of thing before so I've got a ton of reading to do first but essentially the vtodos it exports via iCal can reference milestones/events or act as standalone todo lists. I'm not sure if this works by embedding vtodos in the vevent or using an include method for referencing yet.

This is where my research is starting but the page has a bare minumum of info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICalendar#To-do_.28VTODO.29

Can anyone suggest better resources?

I can foresee vtodos and the little extras they offer embedded in a web page and enabled by some PHP/AJAX combo because by definition they need to be dynamic e.g. status changes.
