Abstract

An electronic scheduling calendar is made more useful to a user by merging to-do list items onto an event list schedule. A user can assign priorities to the to-do list items and estimates of how much time is required to complete each item. Then, upon request by the user, the to-do list items will be placed onto the event list in an available time slot on an available day.
