I recently realized that Google's GData API provides a way to interact with all Google services (Doc, Calendar, YouTube, Blogger, Picasso, etc) through your own server side code. One nice application for Science Gateways is to write a Web Service that submits grid jobs, writes service state changes to Google Calendar, spits out result synopsis to a blog, and posts visualizations to Picasso or YouTube.
