Systems and methods for managing to-do list task items to automatically suggest and add purchasing items via a computer network

摘要

A system and method for managing to-do list task items provides a user interface having user interface elements for allowing the user to add one or more task items to a to-do list, for allowing the user to edit one or more fields associated with a task item added to the to-do list, and for allowing the user to designate a task item within the to-do list as completed whereupon the designated task item is placed into a completed list and removed from the to-do list. Within the system, a task item is defined by at least a title, a description, a due date, and a tag. The tags provide a means for the task items to be organized within lists as well as within the system to, for example, allow task items to be shared, searched on, and the like.

主权项

1. A non-transitory computer-readable media having stored thereon computer executable instructions which, when executed by a processing device, perform steps for allowing a user to manage to-do list task items, the steps comprising:
providing a user interface comprising user interface elements for allowing the user to add one or more task items to a to-do list, for allowing the user to add, to the to-do list, one or more task items from a list of task items shared by other users from an online social network, for allowing the user to edit one or more fields associated with a task item added to the to-do list, and for allowing the user to designate a task item within the to-do list as completed whereupon the designated task item is placed into a completed list and removed from the to-do list, without further user intervention; in response to a task item being added to the to-do list, causing a purchasing task indicative of a need to purchase a product for use in connection with performance of the task item to be automatically added to the to-do list, without further user intervention; in response to a user interaction with the purchasing task item within the to-do list, causing a pop-up window to be automatically displayed, wherein the pop-up window includes a link to an on-line vendor of product, from which a product needed to perform the purchasing task is purchasable; in response to the product being purchased from an on-line vendor of the product, causing the purchasing task to be automatically placed into the completed list and removed from the to-do list, without further user intervention; and wherein a task item is defined by at least a title, a description, a due date, and a tag.
