Abstract

An apparatus that provides for presentation of event items may include a processor. The processor may be configured to receive mobile event items from a mobile terminal. In this regard, the mobile event items may be determined based on a context of the mobile terminal. The processor may be further configured to receive service event items, and provide for presentation of the mobile event items and the service event items in an event item object. The processor may also be configured to provide for presentation of the mobile event items and the service event items, where the mobile event items are filtered based upon the content of the mobile event items or security attributes. Associated methods and computer program products may also be provided.
