Is there a way to color code events in de default Calender application I am using the (I think default) Calender application on my Samsung Galaxy S phone.

It shows blue blocks for my events in the 7 day view.

Is there a way to change this blue color ? So that, e.g. I can mark private events in green and appointments with customers in red ? 

Or is there a way to show some text in the blocks ?

Or it not possible with the default calender .. do you know of another one which does allow this ?

Thanks.
Yes you can, you will need to create a different "calendar" (probably "tag" would be a better name, but that's Google's terms for it). 

Creating a Calendar (do this from the Desktop, I didn't found a way to do it from Android's Calendar app; do anyone know?):


Go to http://www.google.com/calendar.
Look for the "My calendars" box on the left, click on "Add"
Fill in the information, and click Create Calendar.
You can change the color later from "My calendars" box, by clicking on the triangular button.




Adding Events to Calendar (can be done from Android):


On the "Create New Event" view, choose the calendar you've just made from "Calendar" combobox.
