Yes, you can use Google's Gadget API.

I currently have Google OAuth 2.0 for authentication. Next I want to be able to use google hangouts in my website so users can chat with each other, along with showing their contact list. So basically I want it to look like how it is on gmail but on my website for hangouts. Main reason for doing this, I want my users to be able use hangouts as a mode of communication. Please let me know if this is possible and provide the necessary resources, an example/demo of this working would really be helpful.
Im afraid there's no API at the moment available (nor plans for that) to access the text chat feature of Hangouts.
yes, you can. More information about google hangouts API here https://developers.google.com/+/hangouts/getting-started
I've created a completely custom website with a custom CMS. I would like to be able to use Google Analytics to get information such as visitor count, popular pages, visitor location(?), etc. I'm not into the analytics part of websites yet, so I've been looking for some easy ways to implement GA into the CMS. I'd love for the analytics dashboar to look similar to Blogger's analytics dashboard.
Does anyone have experience with a script that will get information from GA, and display it in a nice format?
Thanks!
By the way, I am very new to GA, so sorry if some of this doesn't make sense.
Piwik is a good option. It is open source and exposes a web API, so you can probably customize it to your needs.
How should I create a calendar for a website, which is getting its data from 4-5 different rss feeds.
I want to use php to do this.
I was thinking google calendars would be the solution, if you too think that, can you plz direct me to a good google calendar tutorial, where I can learn how to embed a google calendar into a website.

I don't know how much interaction you want. The basic idea could be this.
Then you could embed the calendar like described here
Or if you want a more privacy concerned version you could make your own by starting with this post.
I want to use Twitter's Streaming API to collect all of the tweets of users signed onto my website - of course I would have an oauth token and secret for them, but I want to store their tweets as they make them. Is that possible with the Streaming API? If so, can anyone point me to some PHP library that will help me implement such a task? I tried looking in to Phirehose, but I don't understand how to use that library to get the feeds of all the users signed up on my website. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Take a look at the 140 Twitter Server.
Adam creates a lot of great helper code around the twitter API, a lot of great articles too.
I use Google Analytics and love it, I have all the goals and conversions setup etc. It works great.
My current task is recording mobile apps. I do not want to hard code it into the App due to ease of changing methods, so I plan on planting the analytics in the mobile API (which is in PHP). I would like to record google analytics events using PHP instead of Javascript.
I know there is a PHP API for Google analytics, but I think this is for reporting only. What would you suggest doing? Maybe a CURL or something? Im lost!
Thanks for your help!
Would this work: http://code.google.com/mobile/analytics/docs/
