I have my org file on an ftp server so I can access it anywhere. I
then use the builtin support for FTP in Emacs (ange/tramp) to
read/write it and the corresponding ics file. Because the org file is
on a FTP server "C-c C-e i" will automatically write the ics file on
the FTP server.

I just point google calendar to this file. The only problem I have had
is with google calendars timezone handling.
