New blog: Our team at Boomerang (https://boomerangapp.com/) analyzed 3.5 million proposed meeting times, putting the conventional wisdom about the best ways to schedule meetings to the test. The results are surprising, and busted some common myths about the best days and times to schedule meetings.


Interesting article, but very clickbaity. Here's the gist:

> The best time to schedule a meeting is at 11am Monday morning... this time period has the least potential for conflicting with other meeting invites.

> Avoid Wednesday and Thursday afternoons... the potential for conflicts is high.

> Providing three meeting slots will suffice. [The article actually says seven, but only because it's content marketing for an app that lets you offer seven slots]

> Time of invite matters. Adding a last-minute event to someone’s calendar probably won’t be well-received


I am unsurprised that earlier-in-week have more accept's than later-in-week. Weekends are a reset.


And at least my experience is that Fridays have become a no meeting zone except in exceptional circumstances for a lot of people.


curious: that website mentions seven patents. I couldn't find it on the website, what patent are these ?
