  • Publication number: 20140278666
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and software are disclosed herein for facilitating enhanced calendar views. In at least one implementation, a method comprises presenting a perspective on a calendar comprising a plurality of calendar units and a plurality of events scheduled in association with the plurality of calendar units. The method further comprises, in response to a primary indication of interest associated with a specific event of the plurality of events, presenting a primary perspective on the specific event comprising event details for the specific event and a plurality of event controls. The method further comprises, in response to a secondary indication of interest associated the specific event of the plurality of events, presenting a secondary perspective on the specific event comprising at least a portion of the event details and a subset of the plurality of event controls.

  • Publication number: 20140278677
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems, methods, and software for facilitating enhanced scheduling. In at least one implementation, a user may consider the availability of any room in a building when scheduling an event. Event entities including an event participant and an event environment having various sub-environments in which to host an event are identified. A participant availability for the event participant is identified based on a participant schedule associated with the event participant and an environment availability for the event environment is identified based on an environment schedule associated with each of the sub-environments. The participant availability for the event participant and the environment availability for the event environment are then presented for consideration by the user.
