The problems most people run into is that are usually action-based quotas (for example, trying to create hundreds of calendars at once). Another common problem is people polling our servers too frequently (a good rule of thumb trying to pull updates no freuently than once per 15 minutes). We don't have any support for using custom Atom feeds with the Calendar widget. However, you could create your own iCalendar file, import that into Google Calendar, and then display the imported calendar in the Calendar widget. There will be a bit of a delay though, since we cache external iCalendar files. -- Trevor Johns --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Calendar Data API" group.
