Abstract: Described herein are methods for implementing a calendaring system for managing flexible events. In an embodiment of the present invention, a method is disclosed where an individual's currently calendared events are considered when scheduling a new flexible event. For example, given an individual's many previously scheduled events, a method of the present invention considers the flexibility of the new event to be scheduled to find its appropriate time slots. From the appropriate time slots, the flexible event is then scheduled. In this way, the flexible event need not be scheduled at only one time but can be scheduled as its specified attributes allow. Moreover, as further events are entered the new or pre-existing events with flexible attributes can be re-scheduled toward resolving conflicts.
