Electronic calendar devices

A method for managing calendar data using a calendar management device, the method comprising:

• generating, by a controller of a calendar management device, a calendar object representing a calendar;
• generating, by the controller, a calendar share identifier associated with the calendar object;
• storing, by the controller, the calendar object in a data storage medium;
• identifying, by the controller, a plurality of calendar users associated with a social media platform;
• causing, by the controller, the calendar share identifier to be provided to each of the plurality of calendar users;
• receiving, by the controller, user input data indicating a streaming event to associate with the calendar object;
• generating, by the controller, a calendar event object indicative of the streaming event;
• associating, by the controller, the calendar event object with the calendar object;
• causing, by the controller, update data to be sent to one or more devices associated with one or more of the plurality of calendar users without sending an email notification to the one or more of the plurality of calendar users, the update data indicating the streaming event;
• providing, by the controller, a first graphical user interface to a first user, the first graphical user interface including one or more first graphical interface elements to receive media data to associate with the streaming event;
• receiving, by the controller, video data to associate with the streaming event;
• embedding, by the controller, the video data within the calendar event object;
• providing, by the controller, a second graphical user interface that includes information about the streaming event, discussion data including one or more messages about the streaming event from one or more additional users, and one or more second graphical interface elements to access to the video data;
• receiving, via the second graphical user interface, a request for a second user to access to the calendar event object;
• facilitating, by the controller, payment processing for the second user to access the streaming event;
• authorizing the second user to access the streaming event based at least in part on social media account information associated with the second user;
• and
• providing access to the video data based at least in part on the authorizing the second user.

A calendar management system comprising:

• one or more non-transitory computer-readable media;
• and
• a controller communicatively coupled to the one or more non-transitory computer-readable media and configured to:
• generate a calendar object representing a calendar;
• generate a calendar share identifier associated with the calendar object;
• store the calendar object;
• identify a plurality of calendar users associated with a social media platform;
• sending the calendar share identifier to a plurality of calendar user devices associated with the plurality of calendar users, respectively;
• receive user input data indicating a streaming event to associate with the calendar object;
• generate a calendar event object indicative of the streaming event;
• associate the calendar event object with the calendar object;
• cause update data to be sent to one or more of the plurality of calendar user devices without sending an email notification to the one or more of the plurality of calendar user devices, the update data indicating the streaming event;
• provide a first graphical user interface to a first user, the first graphical user interface including one or more first graphical interface elements to receive media data to associate with the streaming event;
• receive video data to associate with the streaming event;
• embed the video data within the calendar event object;
• provide a second graphical user interface that includes information about the streaming event, discussion data including one or more messages about the streaming event from one or more additional users, and one or more second graphical interface elements to access to the video data;
• receive, via the second graphical user interface, a request for a second user to access the calendar event object;
• facilitate payment processing for the second user to access the streaming event;
• authorize the second user to access the streaming event based at least in part on social media account information associated with the second user;
• and
• based at least in part on authorizing the second user, provide the video data to the second user in real-time as the video data is received.
