Abstract
Integration of a virtual collaborative environment with an electronic meeting calendar. The virtual collaborative environment functions in a shared pool of resources to provide a virtual medium for multiple entities to work together. The electronic meeting calendar and scheduling integrates with the collaboration. Three separate and distinct factors are accounted for with the scheduling, including establishing a meeting, the duration of the meeting, and the attendees. Each of these factors is considered based upon content uploaded to the collaborative environment.
