Abstract

A computer system including a processor, a system memory, a non-transitory storage medium having modules such as a broadcast obtain module, an other media obtain module, a content aggregate module, an aggregated content send module, a context determine module, a formulate overlay module, and an overlay send module. The system may have a Wi-Fi router. The context determine module may determine a function or access services. The context determine module may access a calendar item for a user. The formulate overlay module may overlay data based on a calendar item. The formulate overlay module may overlay data relevant to aggregated content. A social media access module accessing a number of relevant services and a notice module providing notice to a user may be included. The notice module may identify the notice by using a date, a time, and a location of the computer system.
