Microsoft FindTime is an add-in for Outlook that helps to simplify scheduling, reducing the amount of communication required to work around busy schedules for meetings. FindTime reads user free/busy status information to determine possible meetings time. Users can then send a poll with the various meeting times to attendees, and attendees can vote to choose the best time for them. Once a consensus is reached, FindTime will automatically send out meeting invites for the chosen time.
