Abstract

A computing system may generate an email application and a calendar application. The email application may be configured to retrieve at least one task from a task database, retrieve at least one email from an email database, and concurrently present the at least one retrieved task and the at least one retrieved email in an email user interface, the at least one retrieved task and the at least one retrieved email being adjacent and non-overlapping within the email user interface. The calendar application may be configured to retrieve the at least one task from the task database, retrieve at least one appointment from an appointment database, and concurrently present the at least one retrieved task and the at least one retrieved appointment in a calendar user interface, the at least one retrieved task and the at least one retrieved appointment being adjacent and non-overlapping within the calendar user interface.
