Abstract: Systems and methods of returning location and/or event results using information mined from non-textual information are provided. Non-textual information is captured using a hardware component of a user device. Text-based social media content input on the user device is then retrieved. A location of the user device is determined using a global positioning system module in the user device. The non-textual information is converted to a machine-analyzable format, and the converted non-textual information is compared to a database of converted non-textual information samples to analyze and classify the converted non-textual information. The classification is sent to a server for storage in a database in a manner that ties the classification to the geographical location of the user device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a payment include determining that a conductive payment device has been positioned immediately adjacent a touch sensitive payment receiving device. A plurality of conductive identification elements that are communicated from the conductive payment device to the touch sensitive payment receiving device are detected and the relative positions of at least some of the plurality of conductive identification elements are determined. User payment account information is then retrieved using the determined relative positions of the at least some of the plurality of conductive identification elements. A payment request is then sent over a network to make a payment using the user payment account information.

Abstract: In an example embodiment, a group of local trusted devices is formed based, at least in part, on locations of a plurality of devices. Then a payment tree is presented in a user interface of a first device in the group of local trusted devices, the payment tree including a graphical representation of relationships between devices in the group and permitting selection, by a user of the first device, of one or more devices in the group to share in paying a bill received from a device outside the group. A bill may then be generated from the first device to each selected device in the payment tree, the bill indicating a payment amount reflecting a portion of the bill received from the device outside the group.
