Is there an API to access Windows Live calendar data?
Google Calendar has an API. Does Windows Live have something similar? Here is the google API link: http://code.google.com/apis/calendar/data/2.0/developers_guide.html I'm looking for an equivalent from Microsoft.

I found this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh243646.aspx#wleventscreate the ability to create events in the Windows Live calendar. I haven't used it yet.

The only one I found is this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh243648.aspx#event
But I haven't done anything with it yet, I'll try soon ...

The main API page for Hotmail / Windows Live calendars and contacts appears to be at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/hh528486 .
I also found a page http://preview.library.microsoft.com/en-us/windowslive/gg241159 with instructions on how to create event links for a Hotmail calendar. I don't know why it is on this odd url, but the instructions seem to work.

The one you want is the first one and you will see a complete example of using the API. A browser control is used to log in.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb264574.aspx lists the Microsoft Live API. A quick scan assumes that the calendar data is not available.

Sorry I have no news for you.: - (
