    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for displaying a context-sensitive overlay in conjunction with a calendar displayed by a calendar application. The calendar application can determine contextual information from the calendar that indicates context for the calendar. The contextual information comprises calendar data or third-party data linked to calendar items that are displayed in the calendar. The calendar application can automatically query a backend system to dynamically determine, based on the contextual information, at least one context-sensitive overlay that is pertinent to the calendar in view of the contextual information. The context-sensitive overlay provides supplemental information that is directly associated with the contextual information from the calendar. The context-sensitive overlay can be displayed in conjunction with the calendar so that it is superimposed on at least a portion of the calendar.
