Shared collaborative electronic events

A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing one or more instructions executable by a computer system to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, at a shared calendar service, permission from a first user to access electronic calendar information for the first user from a user calendar service;
• establishing, by the shared calendar service, a connection to the user calendar service;
• receiving, using the connection, at least one electronic calendar event for the first user, from the user calendar service;
• determining, for each received electronic calendar event for the first user, whether a shared meeting object corresponding to the electronic calendar event exists in a shared meeting object store managed by the shared calendar service;
• in response to determining that no shared meeting object corresponding to a first electronic calendar event exists in the shared meeting object store:
• creating a first shared meeting object in the shared meeting object store for the first electronic calendar event;
• determining meeting participants for the first electronic calendar event, wherein the determined meeting participants include the first user and at least one other user;
• and
• providing access to the first shared meeting object to each determined meeting participant, wherein providing access to the first shared meeting object includes enabling each meeting participant to add shared content to the first shared meeting object and view shared content added by other meeting participants;
• and
• in response to determining that a second shared meeting object corresponding to a second electronic calendar event exists in the shared meeting object store, updating the second shared meeting object based on the second electronic calendar event.

A computer-implemented system, comprising:

• one or more computers;
• and
• one or more computer memory devices interoperably coupled with the one or more computers and having tangible, non-transitory, machine-readable media storing one or more instructions that, when executed by the one or more computers, perform one or more operations comprising:
• receiving, at a shared calendar service, permission from a first user to access electronic calendar information for the first user from a user calendar service;
• establishing, by the shared calendar service, a connection to the user calendar service;
• receiving, using the connection, at least one electronic calendar event for the first user, from the user calendar service;
• determining, for each received electronic calendar event for the first user, whether a shared meeting object corresponding to the electronic calendar event exists in a shared meeting object store managed by the shared calendar service;
• in response to determining that no shared meeting object corresponding to a first electronic calendar event exists in the shared meeting object store:
• creating a first shared meeting object in the shared meeting object store for the first electronic calendar event;
• determining meeting participants for the first electronic calendar event, wherein the determined meeting participants include the first user and at least one other user;
• and
• providing access to the first shared meeting object to each determined meeting participant, wherein providing access to the first shared meeting object includes enabling each meeting participant to add shared content to the first shared meeting object and view shared content added by other meeting participants;
• and
• in response to determining that a second shared meeting object corresponding to a second electronic calendar event exists in the shared meeting object store, updating the second shared meeting object based on the second electronic calendar event.
