ABSTRACT:
Providing a unique entry identifier, which is an identifier specific to a calendar entry. The calendar entry can be an entry associated with a set of different electronic calendars, each associated with a specific user. Data for each user specific calendar can be stored in a structured data store. A set of records for each user specific calendar can be maintained and utilized independent of other sets of records associated with other ones of the users. The unique entry identifier can be an identifier unique for the calendar entry within the associated set of records, and wherein the same unique entry identifier is utilized for the calendar entry within each of the different sets of records as a unique identifier for the calendar entry. For example, when calendar updates are conveyed via email among a set of users, shared meetings can always be associated with a unique entry identifier used by all calendaring systems.
