There is an IETF standard (ACAP, kinda like IMAP), which allows for remote 
update of calendars, bookmarks and other application configuration. Even if 
you want to do something different, they have some interesting experiences 
which are documented.

This probably is slightly different to what you wanted, and an ACAP server is 
pretty complex, but there still might be some value.

Try: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/acap/

There is also an acap client implementation in kdenonbeta, but it isn't clear 
what they are trying to do.
