Besides normal Google Account support, GQueues also allows you to login with a Google Apps account and integrate with your Apps calendar and contacts.
Google Apps allows businesses, schools and other organizations to use customized versions of the Google suite of products (email, calendar, contacts, docs, etc...).
You can get a domain name, such as example.com, and then setup accounts in Google Apps for the various people in your group (me@example.com, you@example.com, etc....). Then you can check email in a product that looks and works just like Gmail, except that it's for me@example.com instead of me@gmail.com. Calendar, Docs and all the rest are also tied to your me@example.com account.
GQueues allows you to login with your Google Apps account (me@example.com) instead of having to create a separate Google Account. When you activate Calendar and Contacts integration, GQueues syncs with your Apps Calendar and Contacts instead of the normal Google Calendar and Contacts.
