Abstract

A computer-implemented interactive task management system and method for use on or with a mobile computer system comprising a computer processor, a memory device, and a display screen is presented. The interactive task management system and method comprises a task management module structured to maintain and facilitate the management of a plurality of user-created tasks, and a task trigger module disposed in a communicative relation with said task management module and cooperatively structured to add or facilitate the addition of at least one task to the task management module. Further, the task trigger module is actionable by a user independent of, and without deploying, the task management module.

Claims

1. A computer-implemented interactive task management system for use on a mobile computer system, the mobile computer system comprising a computer processor, a memory device, and a display screen, said interactive task management system comprising:

a task management module structured to maintain and facilitate the management of a plurality of user-created tasks,

a task trigger module disposed in a communicative relation with said task management module and cooperatively structured to add at least one task to said task management module,

said task trigger module being actionable by a user within a contact list tool of the mobile computer system independent of and without deploying said task management module, and

said task trigger module being structured to automatically create at least one task field, said at least one task field being associated with a user-selected action from a list of predetermined actions.

2. The system as recited in claim 1 further comprising a date selection module structured to associate a categorical date to a corresponding task.

3. The system as recited in claim 2 where said categorical date comprises a virtual date.

4. The system as recited in claim 1 further comprising a task linking module structured to selectively link common tasks to create at least one task chain.

5. The system as recited in claim 1 further comprising a task election module structured to associate a score with at least one task and display suggested tasks based thereupon.

6. The system as recited in claim 5 wherein said task election module is structured to process a user'"'"'s situation so as to associate said score with said at least one task.

7. The system as recited in claim 1 further comprising at least one interactive dialogue modules structured to allow the user to interact with a corresponding task.

8. The system as recited in claim 1 further comprising at least one task assistant module structured to facilitate the completion of a corresponding task.

9. A computer-implemented mobile task management method comprising:

activating a task trigger module on a mobile computer system independent of a task management module without deploying the task management module, the task trigger module being structured to accept an input and further structured to selectively add at least one task to the task management module,

providing a list of predetermined actions via the task trigger module, and associating at least one predetermined task field with a selected one of the list of predetermined actions to create and add the at least one task to the task management module,

associating a categorical date with a corresponding task, wherein the categorical date is structured to at least partially define a time of completion associated with the corresponding task,

filtering and organizing a plurality of tasks within the task management module based at least in part upon a user'"'"'s situation, and

displaying a list of filtered and organized tasks to the user.

10. The method as recited in claim 9 further comprising providing the task trigger module within a contact list on the mobile computer system.

11. The method as recited in claim 10 further comprising automatically associating the at least one predetermined task field with a selected one of the list of predetermined actions based upon a selected contact within the contact list.

12. The method as recited in claim 9 further comprising selectively linking a plurality of tasks to form a chain of tasks, wherein each of the tasks within the chain of tasks comprise at least one commonality.

13. The method as recited in claim 9 further comprising defining the categorical date as a provisional date, wherein the provisional date comprises an estimated task completion date.

14. The method as recited in claim 9 further comprising defining the categorical date as a specific date, wherein the specific date comprises an exact task completion date.

15. The method as recited in claim 9 further comprising defining the categorical date as a deadline date, wherein the deadline date comprises an absolute end task completion date.

16. The method as recited in claim 9 further comprising defining the categorical date as a virtual date, wherein the virtual date is at least partially defined by a selected task priority.
