Providing event data to a group of contacts
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A system comprising:
- a data store configured to at least store event records, each event record including data related to an event; and
a computing device in communication with the data store, wherein the computing device executes specific computer-executable instructions to at least;
generate an event record based, at least in part, on a request to coordinate an event for a first group of contacts, the event record including first data related to the event and related to the first group of contacts, wherein the first data is updated as the event occurs with second data related to the event and related to the first group of contacts, and wherein the second data is obtained from at least one contact of the first group;
identify the first group of contacts based, at least in part, on the request to coordinate the event; and
publish the first data to a first computing device associated with a first contact of the first group, wherein the first data is published such that the first data is automatically displayed and persistently viewable on the first computing device for a remaining duration of the event, and the display of the first data automatically ceases at the end of the event; and
subsequent to display of the first data on the first computing device, update display of the first data to add the second data obtained from the at least one contact, wherein updating the display of the first data includes adding the second data without intervention of the first contact.

Abstract
Data related to an event is provided to a group of contacts while the event is occurring via an event user interface that enables the group of contacts to coordinate with one another during the event. In this regard, an event coordination service is provides the event data to each contact of the group for review via an event user interface that is persistently displayed on a telecommunication or other computing device associated with the contact for the contact'"'"'s easy and immediate reference during the event. When the event ultimately concludes, display of the event user interface ceases as the group of contacts likely no longer needs immediate or ready reference to the event.

8. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
as implemented by one or more computing devices configured with specific executable instructions, generating an event record based, at least in part, on a request to coordinate an event for a first group of contacts, the event record including first data related to the event and related to the first group of contacts, wherein the first data is updated as the event occurs with second data related to the event, and wherein the second data is obtained from at least one contact of the first group; identifying the first group of contacts based, at least in part, on the request to coordinate the event; and causing the first data to be displayed on a first computing device associated with a first contact of the first group, wherein the first data is displayed automatically and persistently on the first computing device for a remaining duration of the event, the display of the first data is subsequently updated to include the second data without intervention of the first contact, and the display of the first data automatically ceases at the end of the event. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13)

14. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that when executed by a processor perform operations comprising:
-
generating an event record based, at least in part, on a request to coordinate an event for a first group of contacts, the event record including first data related to the event and related to the first group of contacts, wherein the first data is updated as the event occurs with second data related to the event, and wherein the second data is obtained from at least one contact of the first group; identifying the first group of contacts based, at least in part, on the request to coordinate the event; and causing the first data to be displayed on a first computing device associated with a first contact of the first group, wherein the first data is displayed automatically and persistently on the first computing device for a remaining duration of the event, the display of the first data is subsequently updated to include the second data without intervention of the first contact, and the display of the first data automatically ceases at the end of the event. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
