Abstract

A method and system for creating customized programs for individual requirements from a collection of prerecorded segments, which facilitates the creation of the program based on individual information and responses to specific inquiries to create a program which meets the interests, objectives and behavioral models appropriate to the user. This invention includes the capability of allowing the manual rearrangement and sequencing of the segments and produces a program, which is compatible with standard audio and multi-media players. This invention makes use of Internet connected devices to collect information and to distribute compiled programs.

Claims

1. A process for creating individualized programs, comprising:

(A) receiving individual information from a user;

(B) quizzing a user for more specific information;

(C) compiling said individual information and said specific information to construct a program profile;

(D) retrieving one or more program segments from a database of prerecorded segments;

(E) creating a program of said retrieved one or more program segments;

(F) formatting said created program; and

(G) downloading said created to program to a user computer.

2. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, further comprising presenting said created program profile to a user.

3. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, further comprising mapping said program profile to said individual information.

4. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, further comprising processing a transaction.

5. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, further comprising processing said created program for download.

6. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, further comprising updating a user database.

7. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, wherein said programs are a collection of audio segments.

8. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, wherein said programs are a collection of multi-media segments.

9. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, wherein said individual information received is selected from the group consisting of:

user identification and authorization information;

program type, program objectives, user personal information, content of interest and an authorization instruction.

10. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, wherein said receiving individual information and quizzing a user for more specific information is accomplished with an Internet Destination Website accessed by a user'"'"'s computer and which is in communication with a processor.

11. A process for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 1, wherein said compiling further comprises constructing a customized program profile based upon said individual information, said specific information, user interests, user objectives and behavioral models.

12. A system for creating individualized programs, comprising:

(A) a destination web site accessible over the Internet;

(B) a processor connected to said Internet to receive information from said destination web site;

(C) one or more data bases connected to said processor and wherein at least one of said one or more databases is a storage medium for a collection of prerecorded segments;

(D) a user computer device connected to said Internet; and

(E) wherein said processor is configured to compile a program of said prerecorded segments.

13. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, wherein said information received by said processor includes individual information and specific information entered by a user.

14. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, wherein said prerecorded segments are audio files.

15. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, wherein said prerecorded segments are multi-media files.

16. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, wherein said processor compiles a program from said prerecorded segments based on said received information from said destination web site.

17. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, wherein said processor formats said program for download to said user computer device.

18. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, further comprising an audio player connectable to said user computer device and wherein said audio player is capable of producing an audio signal from a downloaded program.

19. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, further comprising a multi-media database connected to said processor.

20. A system for creating individualized programs, as recited in claim 12, further comprising a user database connected to said processor.
