Integrating Google Calendar and an EE Weblog

Hey Everyone,

I was wondering if it would be possible to somehow tie together a google calendar (because it is easier to add and edit events) with an events weblog in EE - so that if you post or update an event in your Google calendar it is reflected in EE.

I can imagine how it would theoretically be done, but I am curious as to if someone might know the specifics of how to go about this.

Thanks

Same here, I can imagine how it would be done, using RSS feeds or parsing iCal files, but I don’t know of anyone who’s ever oulled it off sucessfully.

Why not just embedd the calendar itself?

That would be the easy approach, the embedd the calendar, but then I loose the ability to use the posts in other formats than just the calendar, like to create unique rss feeds or display in different formats on different places throughout the site.
