Abstract

Some embodiments provide a lifestyle management system for managing delivery of lifestyle information associated as an aggregation of lifestyle resources. Embodiments of the invention involve systems, methods, computer program products, and the like, for providing lifestyle information through a single interface for a user'"'"'s mobile device. Some embodiments include a lifestyle management system including relational model for defining social relationships between users with one or more relationship links defining a data relationship and/or information flow between lifestyle resources data stored on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium. In some embodiments, the interface can provide tools to manage lifestyle resources available to a user of a mobile device such that the user can better manage the user'"'"'s healthcare and lifestyle needs. The interface can also improve the efficiency of accessing and organizing lifestyle resources by gathering one or more user preferences and measuring the user'"'"'s engagement with the provided resources.

Claims

1. A system for managing one or more lifestyle resources, comprising:

at least one processor configured to couple to at least one server and at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for tangibly storing information related to a user account, the non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including program logic for building and accessing at least one user profile accessible by the user through a single access point which when executed by the processor, can cause a lifestyle management system to;

electronically couple to an internet service interface comprising a plurality of user accounts;

using the at least one processor, calculate and display at least one user interface on a computer device of a user that is coupled to the internet service interface;

provide an option to a user to create at least one board, the board configured and arranged for storing, accessing, posting and linking of at least one lifestyle related data selected by the user, the posting and linking configured to enable private posting to the user and public posting to at least one viewing user;

receive from at least one user one or more preferences or characteristics related to a lifestyle resource content of the lifestyle related data;

receive lifestyle related data from at least one third party content source;

use the at least one processor to aggregate and curate the at least one lifestyle related data;

use the at least one processor to apply criteria to the aggregated and curated lifestyle related data based at least in part on one or more preferences or characteristics provided by the user to select and determine eligibility for viewing by a viewing user at least one lifestyle related content item from the aggregated and curated lifestyle related data;

use the at least one processor to display the eligible at least one lifestyle content item to the viewing user;

use the at least one processor to display at least one sharing link on the user interface;

provide an option to the viewing user to post the at least one lifestyle related content item to the at least one board, wherein the post can include at least one of a private posting to at least one of the user'"'"'s boards or a public posting to at least one other user holding one of the plurality of user accounts; and

provide an option to the viewing user to share the at least one lifestyle related content item to at least one other viewer; and

wherein the at least one lifestyle related content item comprises a lifestyle related feed derived from the at least one third party content source.

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one lifestyle related resource includes at least one of an internet resource, a healthcare resource, a personal resource, an employer resource and a healthcare related account associated with the user.

3. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one user interface is coupled to a mobile communication device.

4. The system of claim 3, wherein the mobile communication device comprises at least one of a cellular phone, a smart phone, a computer tablet, a smartwatch, a user-wearable computing device, and a personal digital assistant.

5. The system of claim 3, wherein the mobile communication device is configured as the single access point configured to enable a user to select and view personalized lifestyle related content comprising at least one of employee benefit information, employee healthcare information, personal wellness information and employer human resources information.

6. The system of claim 1, wherein the lifestyle related content delivered to the user is selected based at least in part on an input from a user.

7. The system of claim 1, wherein the lifestyle related content delivered to the user is selected based at least in part on an input from the system.

8. The system of claim 1, wherein the program logic is configured to cause the at least one processor to perform the operation of preparing and delivering to an administrator at least one analytics report based at least in part on the user'"'"'s use of the lifestyle related content and the at least one user interface.

9. The system of claim 8, wherein the at least one analytics report includes a report relating to at least one of the user'"'"'s board updating activity, user visits by day and time, user visits by visit duration, most accessed content, top categories, user visits by geo-location, user visits by demographic slice, and user visits by device type.

10. The system of claim 8, wherein the program logic is configured to enable the administrator to control access and content provided to other administrators and the user.

11. A computer-implemented method of managing and displaying lifestyle resources to a user with the use of a lifestyle management system including at least one processor coupled to at least one non-transitory computer readable storage medium, which is configured to read and store lifestyle related data from at least one of a plurality of lifestyle related resources, the method comprising the steps of:

coupling the lifestyle management system to an internet service interface comprising a plurality of user accounts;

calculating and displaying at least one user interface on a computer device forming a single access point for a user that is coupled to the internet service interface;

providing an option to a user to create at least one board, the board configured and arranged for storing, accessing, posting and linking of at least one lifestyle related data selected by the user, the posting and linking configured to enable private posting to the user and public posting to at least one viewing user;
