SCHEDULING METHOD AND SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A scheduling method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing system from a first user, first data associated with said first user, wherein said first data comprises first user identification associated with said first user, an activity selection for an activity selected by said first user, and first scheduling information associated with said first user;
presenting, by said computing system to said first user in response to said receiving said first data, an input request form;
receiving, by said computing system from said first user in response to said input request form, second data associated with said first user and geographical preference data associated with said first user;
determining, by said computing system in response to said receiving said geographical preference data, facilities associated with said activity, wherein said facilities are located within boundaries specified by said geographical preference data;
generating, by said computing system based on said first data and said second data, tentative reservations data for said first user at each facility of said facilities, wherein each reservation of said tentative reservations data is associated with a different facility of said facilities, and wherein each said reservation is associated with a different time period;
presenting, by said computing system to said first user, said tentative reservations data;
receiving, by said computing system from said first user in response to said presenting said tentative reservations data, verification data indicating that said tentative reservations data is acceptable to said first user;
posting, by said computing system, said tentative reservations data in a social networking environment; and
storing, by said computing system, said tentative reservations data.

Abstract
A scheduling method and system. The method includes receiving by a computing system first data and second data associated with a user. The first data comprises user identification associated, an activity selection for an activity, and first scheduling information. The second data comprises geographical preference data. The computing system determines facilities associated with the activity. The facilities are located within boundaries specified by the geographical preference data. The computing system generates tentative reservations for the user at each facility. The computing system presents the tentative reservations data to the user. The computing system receives verification data from the user. The computing system posts the tentative reservations data in a social networking environment. The computing system stores the tentative reservations data.

12. A computing system comprising a processor coupled to a computer-readable memory unit, said memory unit comprising instructions that when executed by the processor implement a scheduling method, said method comprising:
-
receiving, by said computing system from a first user, first data associated with said first user, wherein said first data comprises first user identification associated with said first user, an activity selection for an activity selected by said first user, and first scheduling information associated with said first user; presenting, by said computing system to said first user in response to said receiving said first data, an input request form; receiving, by said computing system from said first user in response to said input request form, second data associated with said first user and geographical preference data associated with said first user; determining, by said computing system in response to said receiving said geographical preference data, facilities associated with said activity, wherein said facilities are located within boundaries specified by said geographical preference data; generating, by said computing system based on said first data and said second data, tentative reservations data for said first user at each facility of said facilities, wherein each reservation of said tentative reservations data is associated with a different facility of said facilities, and wherein each said reservation is associated with a different time period; presenting, by said computing system to said first user, said tentative reservations data; receiving, by said computing system from said first user in response to said presenting said tentative reservations data, verification data indicating that said tentative reservations data is acceptable to said first user; posting, by said computing system, said tentative reservations data in a social networking environment; and storing, by said computing system, said tentative reservations data. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
