I reckon you can have this going in a couple hundred lines of code. webnoir.org: http, routing, html generation. pick it up, tell it what you want. couldn't be simpler.
sqlkorma.com: sql query dsl. clojuremongodb.info: mongodb query dsl. Probably the most sticky bit is the Google auth, but perhaps by now there is code available. github.com/cemerick/friend should get you started. or if you're feeling adventurous, you could grab Datomic Free and have some fun with it. We (a team of 3) are currently building a production stack with Datomic and Noir. I listed SQL and Mongo just in case :-) Feel free to ask me more here or off-list if you like!
