An apparatus may include a processor configured to receive a request for a context-sensitive calendar. The request may comprise an indication of an associated context. The processor may also be configured to determine the context associated with the received request. The processor may further be configured to aggregate one or more information atoms based at least in part upon the determined context. The processor may additionally be configured to generate a context-sensitive calendar comprising the aggregated information atoms. The processor may also be configured to provide the generated context-sensitive calendar to a user. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100083157 | METHODS, APPARATUSES, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCTS FOR PROVIDING ACTIVITY COORDINATION INFORMATION - A method, apparatus, and computer program product are provided, which may provide activity coordination information. An apparatus may include a processor configured to cause a map to be displayed in a viewing agent. The processor may be further configured to receive an indication of a selection of a location on the map. The processor may also be configured to determine one or more information atoms having associated location information defining a location within a predefined distance of the selected location. The processor may additionally be configured to cause the one or more determined information atoms to be displayed in the viewing agent. Corresponding methods and computer program products are also provided. | 04-01-2010 |
| 20100323667 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR IN-APPLICATION NOTICE OF INDEPENDENT MESSAGE - An approach is provided for monitoring a messaging service for arrival of a message at an apparatus. It is determined whether the message indicates an installed application that is installed on the apparatus and is different from the messaging service. If the message indicates the installed application, then removal is initiated of the message from a queue of received messages for the external messaging service and selecting one or more actions for the application based on the message. | 12-23-2010 |
