Create calendars with the Google Calendar Data API.

The Google Calendar data API now supports two new read/write feeds that allow you to manage a user's list of calendars. One feed lets you create and delete calendars, while the second feed can be used to add and remove subscriptions to existing calendars.
The owncalendars feed contains the collection of calendars that a user 'owns' (either because they created the calendar or because someone shared it with them and gave them permission to "Make changes AND manage sharing"). Adding a calendar to this feed will create a brand new calendar that you can add events to or share with your friends and colleagues.
The allcalendars feed contains all the calendars that a user has access to, including the public or shared calendars that have been subscribed to. You can use this feed to add and remove subscriptions or update personal calendar settings like the color or visibility.
For more information about these new feeds, visit the Google Calendar data API Reference Guide, or follow the links above to see code examples in the Developer's Guide. Lots of people have requested this feature in the Calendar data API developer forum, so let us know what you think!
