I have tried Eric Fraga's code from: http://osdir.com/ml/emacs-orgmode-gnu/2010-07/msg00265.html but I can't get it to work, nor do I understand it (is it complete?). Anyway, his approach depends on adding org-entries to diary. So, as far as I understand it, you have to create new schedules in a rather special way. Most people, I think, use remember, org-capture or insert new dates directly into an org file. What I (and probably others) need is a way to trigger a call of 'google calendar add' as soon as a new date is created by org-remember etc. What would be the best way to do this? Up to now, although a full syncing orgmode with GoogleCalendar is not possible, we are quite close to it thanks to Eric's '2x2 method' and his awk-script solution. But that solves only three quarters of the problem. Informing GoogleCalendar about dates one has created with org still needs the awkward manual import of ics-files via a web-browser. I think there could be a better solution. Greetings, Sven
