PROVIDING EVENT DATA TO A GROUP OF CONTACTS
First Claim
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, the computing device configured 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 obtained from at least one external data source or with third data 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 substantially continuously on the first computing device as the event occurs and such that the first data is updated, 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.

9. A computer-implemented 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 obtained from at least one external data source or with third data 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 substantially continuously on the first computing device as the event occurs and such that the first data is updated, without intervention of the first contact. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. 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 obtained from at least one external data source or with third data 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 substantially continuously on the first computing device as the event occurs and such that the first data is updated, without intervention of the first contact. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19, 20)
