LOADING OF SERVER-STORED USER PROFILE DATA
First Claim
1. A computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed on a processor of a client computer system, cause the client computer system to perform a method of loading user profile data from a server computer system to the client computer system, the method comprising:
- initiating a login process for a user on the client computer system;
during the login process, sending login information to the server computer system; and
determining metadata relating to the user profile data.

Abstract
One or more computer-implemented methods provided by computer-readable media for providing and loading user profile data from a server computer system to a client computer system may be used together with the server and client computer systems. The client computer system may be caused to initiate a login process for a user on the client computer system and to send login information to the server during the login process. After reception of the login information from the client, the server evaluates the received login information to obtain user information corresponding to a user identified in the login information. Based on the obtained user information, the server finds user profile data stored on the server computer system. Finally, metadata relating to the user profile data may be determined by the client computer system by pulling corresponding data from the server computer system.

13. A computer-readable medium storing computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a server computer system, cause the server computer system to perform a method of providing user profile data from the server computer system to a client computer system, the method comprising:
-
receiving login information from the client computer system; evaluating the received login information to obtain user information corresponding to a user identified in the login information; finding user profile data stored on the server computer system based on the obtained user information; and providing data relating to the user profile data to the client computer system to determine metadata relating to the user profile data. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15)
