Abstract: Methods and systems for managing an electronic calendar are described. One exemplary method includes displaying a calendar on a display device, the calendar having at least one time range, and displaying an invitation, before it is accepted, on the calendar in the at least one time range with other events which are already accepted. Another exemplary method includes displaying a calendar on a display device and displaying a list of user-selectable calendars comprising an invitation calendar which presents invitations which have not yet been accepted or declined on the invitation calendar. Other methods are described, and machine readable media and systems are also described.

Abstract: Methods, systems and machine readable media for operating a calendar in a data processing system. In one exemplary method, a calendar interface is displayed on a device, wherein the calendar interface is capable of zooming between a first or current time frame and a target time frame containing an invitation while preserving contextual continuity for the user.

Abstract: An online application and service operates over existing photo hosting services to allow users to share digital photos hosted by multiple online photo hosting services, including ability to automatically discover relevant photos, to create a photo “album” that includes photos hosted by multiple different online services; to automatically discover relevant content and add it to an album; to chat and/or send instant messages in relation to shared photos; and automatic notifications of events of interest to users. The service includes a server based application and an associated client-side application with a graphical user interface. The technology further includes a method of “reverse tagging”, i.e., automatically adding semantic tags to an online album and any photos included in it, by automatically performing an online search of an information resource in response to a user creating a name for the album, and applying results of the search as tags to the album.

Abstract: Methods, systems and machine readable media for displaying (e.g., information from multiple calendars) using different secondary colors generated according to primary colors in a data processing system. In one exemplary method, a calendar interface is displayed on a display device, wherein the calendar interface is capable of displaying calendar events for a user, and a control interface is displayed, which control interface allows the user to selectively display calendar events simultaneously from at least two calendars of the user in the calendar interface. Each of the calendars can have a primary color for display; and, secondary colors are automatically determined based on the primary color for the user interface elements associated with a calendar.

Abstract: The calendaring techniques and systems described herein enable a user to more easily resolve conflicts for attendees to an event by visually indicating available time slots for all attendees in a calendar window or in a timeline window separate from the calendar window. The first available time slot may be automatically selected or the user may select an available slot to reschedule the event. In another aspect, inspector windows are displayed within a calendar window to show summary or details for an event. An inspector window can also be displayed when a change to an event is detected. In yet another aspect, calendars for multiple accounts accessible by a user are merged into a single calendar view.
