Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is a method of integrating public and private calendars on a user-specific basis, such that a user is able to view multiple shared calendars created by different users. A system maintains event data relating to a future event, and receives a request to add that event to one of the user's calendars. The system creates a link between that event and the calendar, configuring the link so that updates to the event are automatically reflected on the calendar. It further enables the user to modify attributes associated with the event.
