This can be very interesting. I'd also like to know.

Funny you should mention this. Just this morning I fetched the ics file
from my google calendar and imported the ics file into my diary
(icalendar-import-file "/here/is/calendar.ics"
"/there/goes/ical-diary"). If you then set org-agenda-include-diary
properly, you'll get the events from the google calendar in your agenda.
Pretty straight forward actually. You could probably automate this with
cron. To avoid reimporting the same events again you could have a
separate diary file for the google calendar and drop it before each
import. #include it in the main diary file. org-mode probably handles
this (not tested) as it just uses the fancy diary display (which is
needed for #include).
Would be nice to write a detailed tutorial about this. Any volunteers?

I'm not really *syncing* my Org agenda files with Google Calendar.
I don't use Google Calendar to add new events; I just use it to check
events that I have in my Org agenda files. So what I basically do, is
that I export my agenda files to a single .ics file, then ask Google
to import this as a new calendar.
I've cron'ed this script:
#!/bin/bash
/usr/local/bin/emacs --batch --eval \
"(progn (load-file \"~/elisp/testing/org/org.el\") \
(load-file \"~/elisp/testing/org/org-install.el\") \
(load-file \"~/elisp/config/org-batch-config.el\") \
(setq org-combined-agenda-icalendar-file \"~/org/cal/org.ics\")
(setq org-agenda-files (quote (\"~/org/bzg.org\"))))" \
-f org-export-icalendar-combine-agenda-file
It keeps an updated version of org.ics on my computer. Then I rsync this
file with the web location Google is aware of.
For me it seems much easier to always modify events from Org and then
keep some web interface updated, than to try to achieve real syncing...

This won't work if you have someone also adding events for you, for
example your secretary.

So this is how to *import* the calendar information from Google.
A straightforward syncing solution would be to do this, and to export an
ics file created by Org to a web location that Google knows (see details
in my previous email.)
But I have a strong feeling we won't avoid duplicated entries at some
point...

A sync would be much better, if possible.
This will be a *really* cool thing to have in org, I think we can all
agree on it. :D
You can sync your PDA's WM5/6 calendar using OggSync with google's
calendar so that means, you can have org-mode sync'ed with your PDA's
calendar. ;;)
P.S. There is also iGoogle.com that has TODOs (which I guess the
calendar doesn't).

Cezar

I have my org file on an ftp server so I can access it anywhere. I
then use the builtin support for FTP in Emacs (ange/tramp) to
read/write it and the corresponding ics file. Because the org file is
on a FTP server "C-c C-e i" will automatically write the ics file on
the FTP server.
I just point google calendar to this file. The only problem I have had
is with google calendars timezone handling.

For possible ways of syncing with Google Calendar, see gcal.el --
which is part of my emacs-g-client package
http://emacspeak.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/lisp/g-client
Note that the above code is independent of Emacspeak --- but has
only been tested under Emacs 22.

Yes -- this is a great add-on, already advertized here.
It would be nice to document this on http://orgmode.org/worg/
with a page displaying nice screenshots and explaining the setup.

Thank you for this hint.
org-mode was mentioned in a german linux magazine article with topic
calfw - should help to popularize org-mode.
