Reminders based on virtual locations
View Patent ↗One embodiment provides a method, including: obtaining, using a processor, a reminder, the reminder being triggered by a later access to a virtual location; thereafter determining, using a processor, a user is accessing the virtual location; and providing, using a processor, the reminder to the user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
1. A method, comprising:
obtaining, using a processor, a reminder comprising user based input related to an action to be taken by the user when accessing a virtual location, the reminder being triggered by a later access to the virtual location, wherein the reminder is created prior to accessing the virtual location;
thereafter determining, using a processor, a user is accessing the virtual location; and
providing, using a processor, the reminder to the user.
2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting the reminder between user devices.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting the reminder between devices based on user entered identification information.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining comprises parsing text of a resource address and matching the resource address with the reminder.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising automatically suggesting a virtual location based on associating data of the reminder with a virtual location.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the providing comprises displaying a user interface associated with the reminder.
7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the user interface includes a selection that adjusts the reminder.
8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the selection resets the reminder.
9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining comprises detecting user input associated with user identification information accessing a user account.
10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the virtual location is a location selected from the group consisting of: a website, a type of website, a game, a type of game, an application, and a type of application.
11. An information handling device, comprising:
an output device;
a processor operatively coupled to the output device; and
a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to:
obtain a reminder comprising user based input related to an action to be taken by the user when accessing a virtual location, the reminder being triggered by a later access to the virtual location, wherein the reminder is created prior to accessing the virtual location;
thereafter determine a user is accessing the virtual location; and
provide, using the output device, the reminder to the user.
12. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to transmit the reminder between user devices.
13. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to transmit the reminder between devices based on user entered identification information.
14. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to determine comprises parsing text of a resource address and matching the resource address with the reminder.
15. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein the instructions are further executable by the processor to automatically suggest a virtual location based on associating data of the reminder with a virtual location.
16. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to provide comprises displaying a user interface associated with the reminder.
17. The information handling device of claim 16 , wherein the user interface includes a selection that adjusts the reminder.
18. The information handling device of claim 17 , wherein the selection resets the reminder.
19. The information handling device of claim 11 , wherein to determine comprises detecting user input associated with user identification information accessing a user account.
20. A product, comprising:
a storage device having code stored therewith and executable by a processor, the code comprising:
code that obtains a reminder comprising user based input related to an action to be taken by the user when accessing a virtual location, the reminder being triggered by a later access to the virtual location, wherein the reminder is created prior to accessing the virtual location;
code that thereafter determines a user is accessing the virtual location; and
code that provides the reminder to the user.
