Abstract

An appointment system for synchronizing disparate electronic calendars of a plurality of remote electronic devices is disclosed. The system includes a primary electronic calendar having a memory for storing information from the remote electronic devices. A processing means processes the information received from remote electronic devices that are connected to an electronic network. The primary electronic calendar utilizes a remote device access means to access each remote electronic device. The primary electronic calendar reads from and writes to each remote electronic calendar through one of the at least one remote device translation means thereby synchronizing the electronic calendar of each remote electronic device with the primary electronic calendar. Appointments, events and reminder maintained on any one of the electronic devices are displayed on all the remote electronic devices associated with the electronic network.

Claims

1. A system for synchronizing a plurality of electronic calendars, each of a remote electronic device, comprising:

a primary electronic calendar comprising a memory, a processing means, a connection to an electronic network, a network access means, and at least one remote device translation means;

whereby each remote electronic device, while connected to the electronic network, may connect to and utilize the network access means of the primary electronic calendar to read from and write to the memory of the primary electronic calendar through one of the at least one device translation means to synchronize the electronic calendar of the remote electronic device with the primary electronic calendar.

2. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one of the electronic devices is a cellular phone.

3. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one of the electronic devices is a personal computer.

4. The system of claim 1 wherein at least one of the electronic devices is a web-based calendar application.

5. A system for synchronizing a plurality of electronic calendars, each of a remote electronic device, comprising:

a primary electronic calendar comprising a memory, a processing means, a connection to an electronic network, a remote device access means, and at least one remote device translation means;

whereby the primary electronic calendar may utilize the remote device access means to access each remote electronic device when each remote electronic device is connected to the electronic network, the primary electronic calendar reading from and writing to each remote electronic calendar through one of the at least one device translation means to synchronize the electronic calendar of each remote electronic device with the primary electronic calendar.

6. The system of claim 5 wherein at least one of the electronic devices is a cellular phone.

7. The system of claim 5 wherein at least one of the electronic devices is a personal computer.

8. The system of claim 5 wherein at least one of the electronic devices is a web-based calendar application.
