Patent number: 9659089Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for managing work and personal items. Information is received from a user to populate a user profile providing rules to determine a priority for work and personal items to be addressed by the user. Work and personal data sources (e.g., e-mails, social media) are monitored. The content in these monitored data sources are scanned and analyzed for work and personal items to be addressed by the user. These work and personal items are then presented to the user in a prioritized order based on the rules in the user profile. In this manner, the user is able to effectively manage the various work and personal items from various data sources by receiving a prioritized list of work and personal items that need to be addressed based on various factors that the user deems to be important as provided in the user's profile.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2013Date of Patent: May 23, 2017Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Donald E. Buddenbaum, Peter F. Haggar, Heather M. Kreger, Arnaud J. Le Hors, John V. Meegan, Keith A. Wells
