I don''t really have a good idea conceptually of how to add an event a user selected to a web calendar such as Google Calendar without first generate a .ics (iCal) file and then import it manually to the calendar application. I would like to save the user this step but have not found concrete information on how to do so. Does this involve WWW::Mechanize, Net::Http, and XML data? I would appreciate an outline of steps involved to achieve this.

Hi Kevin, Google does have a set of APIs for accessing their products. I''m not sure how these would work together with Rails, but probably fine.

Re: How to add an event directly to a web calendar
I''m in the process of doing something like that myself. Like Josh said, they don''t have a Rails API/module, but they give specs about the protocol used. http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/developers_guide_protocol.html basically, it''s XML over HTTP. I think we can do something with that. I''m still figuring it out myself.
