Haven't tried using UID for google yet, if an entry has changed in org-mode and google which version will be used when it encounters two edited entries with the same UID? At the moment I'm thinking of just exporting non-google items back into google (by excluding category google during export), but this way I can only edit google-entries in google and org-entries in org... so using UIDs seems a lot better... > Google will load an ics file from a location on the web periodically so > you could always export your org as an ics file and tell Google where to > find it.

One of my problems is that when I upload to google with a .ics file it seems that I can only import into a secondary calendar and not my main one, so if other people look at my calendar they would miss all the org-mode entries... anyone solved this issue? Using googlecl on the other hand allows me to edit my main calendar directly, but then I don't know how to edit them... cheers ARUN
