Machine, Computer Readable Medium, and Computer-Implemented Method For File Management, Storage, and Display

Abstract

File management machines, computer readable media, and methods of file management, are provided. An exemplary file management machine includes a file management server configured to receive or retrieve user files through an electronic communication/computer network to provide categorical organization and establishment of albums. The file management server can also function to create member user and visitor accounts. The visitor accounts can be provided individual custom access by the member user to provide individualized tailored access to a subset of the files uploaded by the member user. The visitor accounts can be used as to gather information about the file unknown to the member user.

         28 . A system for event-based management of digital assets, the system including:
 receiving, in response to user action, from a client computer for storage on a remote server one or more digital assets to be administered upon the death of a user;   receiving, in response to user action, from the client computer an identification of one or more actions to administer the one or more digital assets upon the death of the user;   storing on the remote server the one or more digital assets to be administered upon the death of a user and associating the one or more actions with the digital assets;   executing, by the remote server, the one or more actions administering the one or more digital assets in response to an indication that the user has died.   
     
     
         29 . The system of  claim 28  wherein the set of one or more actions includes transmission of the one or more digital assets to one or more predetermined recipients. 
     
     
         30 . The system of  claim 28  wherein the set of one or more actions includes the publication of the one or more digital assets. 
     
     
         31 . The system of  claim 28  wherein the set of one or more actions includes the deletion of the one or more digital assets. 
     
     
         32 . The system of  claim 28  wherein receiving, from the user, a set of one or more actions to administer the one or more digital assets upon the death of the user includes presenting the user with a menu for selection of the one or more predetermined actions. 
     
     
         33 . A system for digital asset management, the system including:
 receiving, from a user for storage on a remote server, one or more digital assets to be administered for a user;   receiving, from the user, a set of one or more actions to administer the one or more digital assets at a user selected time in the future;   storing on the remote server the one or more digital assets to be administered upon the death of a user and associating the set of one or more actions with the digital assets; and   executing, by the remote server at the user selected time, the one or more actions administering the one or more digital assets.   
     
     
         33 . The system for life-event based management of digital assets of  claim 32  wherein
 the digital asset includes content for a recipient and the one or more actions includes transmission of the content to the recipient. 
 
     
     
         34 . A file management machine to perform file management operations associated with a plurality of files digital assets through user action, the file management machine comprising:
 a first computer configured as a file management server adapted to communicate through an electronic communications network with a plurality of remotely located user computer devices associated with a plurality of users and configured as the user computer devices, each of the user computer devices being remote from the file management server, the file management server having one or more processors and one or more memory elements; and   a computer program on the file management server and stored in the memory, the computer program comprising a set of instructions that, when executed by the file management server, cause the file management server to perform operations comprising:   causing display of a graphical user interface (GUI′) dashboard to a user on one of the plurality of remotely located user computer devices; the including one or more icons representing a plurality of one or more predetermined categories representing notable events in a life of a user,   whereby responsive to user action associating one of a plurality of files with one or more of the icons, the file management server to executes the operations of:   extracting a copy of the file digital asset from a memory element associated with the respective remotely located user computer devices, and   transferring the copy of the file digital asset through the electronic communications network to the one or more memory elements associated with the file management server, and   storing the digital asset to the one or more memory elements in association with establishing a relation between the file and the respective predetermined category represented by the selected icon, and   associating each of the plurality of uploaded files with one or more of a plurality of life events of the user associated with the one or more icons.   
     
     
         35 . The file management machine of  claim 34  wherein the user action associating one of a plurality of files with one or more of the icons further comprises dragging and dropping one of the plurality of files onto a selected one of the icons.
