1. A method for propagating a message, comprising:
- searching content of a plurality of messages for time-based information, the plurality of messages comprising a message or a post within a social networking environment;
extracting the time-based information based on the content of the plurality of messages; and
dynamically and automatically changing a display of messages in a graphical user interface, wherein said dynamically and automatically changing comprises;
propagating at least one message comprising time-based information as the time-based information approaches, said propagating of the at least one message comprising moving the at least one propagated message to a top of an e-mail inbox of a user;
displaying the at least one propagated message in a calendar of the user; and
propagating at least one message after the time-based information has passed, wherein the method is performed within a social networking system.
