Abstract

A device and method for generating a dynamic personalized events feed that is personalized for a user is provided. The device may include one or more processors configured to determine events that match filtering information, generate the dynamic personalized events feed based on the determined events, and update the generated dynamic personalized events feed based on the determined events. The device may also include a network interface component coupled to a network, the network interface component configured to receive the filtering information, and transmit the generated dynamic personalized events feed to a user device. The device may further include a memory, the memory storing event information and user information for determining events that match the filtering information.

         4 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the displaying the notification comprises:
 displaying a confirmation notifying the first user that the third user has purchased a ticket to the first event.   
     
     
         5 . The system of  claim 3 , wherein the generating the event feed further comprises: displaying ticketing information notifying the first user about the first event the third user is planning to attend. 
     
     
         6 . A method, comprising:
 accessing a plurality of events from a first input comprising a database;   generating for a first user, an event feed including one or more events of the plurality of events by filtering the plurality of events based on information about the first user, wherein the information about the first user comprises at least a past event attended by the first user, and wherein filtering the plurality of events based on a past event comprises including in the event feed at least one upcoming event that has at least one similarity to the past event;   including in the event feed information from a second input stacked to filter the second input using information from a third input, wherein the information from the second input comprises at least one of news regarding at least one of the plurality of events or notifications of other users planning to attend at least one of the plurality of events, wherein the information from the third input comprises at least one of an automatically determined current location of the first user, types of events the first user is interested in attending, or past searches regarding the plurality of events conducted by the first user; and   causing the event feed to be displayed on an electronic device of the first user.   
     
     
         7 . The method of  claim 6 , further comprising:
 receiving a request from the first user to share the event feed with a second user;   sharing the event feed with the second user in response to the received request, wherein the sharing comprises causing the event feed to be displayed on an electronic device of the second user;   receiving a request from the first user to electronically re-access the event feed; and   updating, in response to the request, the event feed to reflect new events, changes to one or more existing events, or canceled events since the event feed was generated.   
     
     
         8 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the second input comprises news regarding the plurality of events and the third input comprises types of events the first user is interested in attending. 
     
     
         9 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the information about the first user and the third input comprise an automatically determined current location of the first user. 
     
     
         10 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the third input comprises past searches regarding the plurality of events conducted by the first user. 
     
     
         11 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the information about the first user comprises a past event performed by a particular band and attended by the first user, and wherein filtering the plurality of events based on the past event comprises including in the event feed at least one upcoming event associated with a similar band. 
     
     
         12 . The method of  claim 6 , wherein the information about the first user comprises a past event of a particular genre attended by the first user, and wherein filtering the plurality of events based on the past event comprises including in the event feed at least one upcoming event in the same genre.
