Abstract

A user of a calendar application subscribes to a syndication feed corresponding to an event recorded at the calendar application in a calendar data format. The syndication feed commences sending feed data to the user upon occurrence of the event. The feed data indicates a status of the event. The syndication feed binds to a feed data entry in the calendar application that is associated with the calendar item. The feed data of the syndication feed is converted from a feed format to the calendar data format usable by the calendar application to produce converted feed data. The converted feed data is presented in the calendar application proximate to the calendar item. One or more of the subscribing, binding, converting, and presenting is performed by a computing device.
