ABSTRACT:
A computer implemented method of providing time-zone capability to existing personal information management (PIM) software that lacks time-zone capability, the method comprising: executing the existing PIM software; executing a time-zone application in parallel with the existing PIM software, wherein the time-zone application determines that there has been a change in time zone; and changes times of appointments stored in the PIM software to reflect the new time zone.
