Visualizing multiple time zones in a calendaring and scheduling application

A system for visualizing multiple time zones, the system comprising:

• a calendaring and scheduling (C&S) application;
• an event schedule managed by said C&S application;
• and,
• multiple time zone processing logic coupled to said C&S application, said multiple time zone processing logic determining a time zone for each participant to a defined event and rendering a user interface showing a local time in said determined time zone corresponding to a preferred time for said defined event for each said participant.

A machine readable storage having stored thereon a computer program for visualizing multiple time zones in a calendaring and scheduling system, the computer program comprising a routine set of instructions which when executed by a machine causes the machine to perform the steps of:

• defining an event for a preferred time and a specified set of participants;
• determining a time zone for each of said participants;
• and,
• rendering a user interface showing a local time in said determined time zone corresponding to said preferred time for each of said participants.
