## Abstract

A timeline builder system includes a content management configuration. The timeline builder system further includes a content preparation module. The content management configuration and the content preparation module are housed as applications within a plurality of application servers. A back-end user creates a visual, audio and textual content for a front-end user.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A timeline builder system, comprises:
a processor;
a computer device;
a content preparation module accessed by a back-end user, the content preparation module having a story template module, a media log module and an event publication summary module permitting content creation by the back-end user; and
a narrative display module receiving the content creation and accessed by a front-end user, the narrative display module having a content filter module, a timeline module, an event display module and a fixed element module, the front-end user views and make selections among content creation established by the back-end user through the narrative display module.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The timeline builder system of claim 1, wherein a defined space includes content categories grouped within the content filter module for stories, topics, tags and collections.

### Claim 3 (depends on 2)

The timeline builder system of claim 2, wherein a second defined space contains a list of event summaries within the timeline module each shown in time-based temporal sequence by display dates and display titles that are associated with an event set of content categories selected by the front-end user.

### Claim 4 (depends on 3)

The timeline builder system of claim 3, wherein a third defined space contains an event record of an event display module including a plurality of constituent components of the event record associated with an event summary selected for display by the front-end user from the timeline module.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The timeline builder system of claim 1, wherein the front-end user utilizes the content filter module to examine a set of content filters established by a back-end user and including a set of collection titles each representing a front-end user defined collection set cumulatively presented within the set of content filters.

### Claim 6 (depends on 5)

The timeline builder system of claim 5, wherein the front-end user chooses among individual content filter options, a set of event summaries that corresponds to the selected content filters and displays a reported event summary records, in time-based temporal sequence, according to a sort date associated with each event record, an individual event summaries reported will only be those for which the front-end user has sufficient permission given by the content creating back-end user.

### Claim 7

A timeline builder system, comprises:
a processor;
a computer device;
a plurality of back-end user modules permitting content creation by a back-end user;
a front-end user environment receiving the content creation by the back end user, the front-end user environment having a content management configuration, the content configuration having a narrative display module; the narrative display module having a plurality of panels including:
a content filter module having a plurality of selectable or de-selectable content categories;
a timeline module displaying on a display screen event summaries in a time based temporal sequences for the content categories selected by the front-end user in the content filter module; and
an event display module displaying content for an event summary module selected from the timeline module by the front-end user.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

The timeline builder system of claim 7, wherein the front-end user environment further includes a life lessons module.

### Claim 9 (depends on 8)

The timeline builder system of claim 8, wherein the life lessons module is composed of back-end user created content and consumed by the front-end user which is not accessed within the content filter module and the timeline module.

### Claim 10 (depends on 9)

The timeline builder system of claim 9, wherein the event display module includes an event record module.

### Claim 11 (depends on 10)

The timeline builder system of claim 10, wherein each event record module corresponds to an associated category within the content categories of the content filter module.

### Claim 12

A timeline builder system, comprising:
a processor;
a computer device;
a back-end user environment only accessible by a back-end user having:
a content preparation module, the content preparation module provides a framework of creating content by the back-end user; and
an event creation module, the event creation module provides a framework of organizing created content by the back-end user, back-end users enter event titles, display titles, sort dates, display dates, content and media files; and
a front-end user consumes content through a narrative display module permitting the front-end user to select or deselect relevant content to interact with.

### Claim 13 (depends on 12)

The timeline builder system of claim 12, wherein the event creation module includes an access module that permits the back-end user to set permission levels per an event.

### Claim 14 (depends on 13)

The timeline builder system of claim 13, wherein the event creation module further includes a topic module that permits the back-end user to create hierarchical taxonomies of categories of content that provide a foundation to the front-end user to navigate, select and explore the content.

### Claim 15 (depends on 14)

The timeline builder system of claim 14, wherein the event creation module further includes a tag module that permits the back-end user to create non-hierarchical taxonomies of categories that provide a foundation to the front-end user to navigate, select and explore the content.

### Claim 16 (depends on 15)

The timeline builder system of claim 15, wherein the event creation module further includes a life lesson module.

### Claim 17 (depends on 16)

The timeline builder system of claim 16, wherein a life lessons module permits the back-end user to create custom sets of media file content that are accessed by the front-end user.

### Claim 18 (depends on 17)

The timeline builder system of claim 17, wherein the event creation module further includes a fixed element module providing persistent identification and navigations tools to the front-end user.

### Claim 19 (depends on 18)

The timeline builder system of claim 18, wherein a story module permits back-end users to create custom sets of content independent of the topics module and the tags modules.
