Systems, methods and media for monitoring user specific information on websites by searching websites and displaying the results based at least partially on geographical region are disclosed. Embodiments may include receiving a search request including one or more keywords and searching a database based on the received search request to generate search results, where the search results include an indication of one or more websites each with an associated geographical region. Embodiments may also include generating a geographical user interface page based on the search results, where the page includes an indication of the one or more opinion websites superimposed on a map based on their associated geographical region. Embodiments may further include transmitting the generated geographical user interface page. Further embodiments may include generating geography-based directed advertising based on the search results or receiving and storing a rating for a website from a user.

An electronic entertainment center housing that organizes the mass of wiring, adapters and convertors into a user friendly arrangement that permits the insertion and removal of the electronic components supported therein, as well as the tracking of errors in the entertainment center. The housing is adapted to removably support a plurality of different consumer electronic products. There are a plurality of external I/O connection outlets of different types in the housing and there is a connections spine in the housing that includes a plurality of I/O connection outlets of different types, a plurality of electrical connector paths for connecting pairs of the outlets in the spine with each other and a plurality of electrical connector paths for connecting outlets in said spine with the external outlets in said housing. At least one converter in at least one of the electrical connector paths converts an electrical signal input to one of said outlets of the connector path into a different electrical signal output from the other outlet of the connect or path.

A cache system for a computer. In a preferred embodiment, a DFI-cache (Dynamic Frequent Instruction cache) is queried simultaneously with a main cache, and if a requested address is in either cache, a hit results. The DFI-cache retains frequently used instructions longer than the main cache, so that the main cache can invalidate lines while still enjoying the benefits of a cache hit when next accessing that line.

A comprehensive method for coordinating cellular phones in a residential area to obviate the need for wired residential service. The present invention includes coordinating a set of wireless devices in a residential area to be able to receive a call directed to a user's cellular telephone. Said wireless devices can have different numbers and be serviced by different providers than the user's cellular telephone. Peer-to-peer relationships are formed between associated wireless communications devices, similar to IEEE 802.11 peer-to-peer relationships. A call could also be answered by another cellular telephone, or other device, such as a computer. All communicating handsets of associated wireless communications devices could join the call. The present invention would prevent a user from missing any incoming calls while at the user's residence. The present invention would also allow a user to receive calls at the user's residence on any associated communications device without the need for wired residential service.

Methods, apparatuses, systems, and media for generating characters for electronic devices using condensed keyboards are disclosed. Embodiments comprise a method of manipulating a set of keys adapted to be manipulated using fingers of a left hand and a right hand of a user, each of the keys capable of generating multiple characters. A variation of the method includes using one or more keys adapted to be used by thumbs of the user to generate other characters and/or control characters. Other embodiments comprise keyboards, apparatuses, and portable electronic devices that comprise two sets of keys for manipulation and desired character generation. The keyboards generally have four or more keys for each hand, and the keyboards may be located on the back and/or sides of portable the systems.
摘要:
A system, method, and related computer program for an AC/DC converter with multiple output cords having variable voltage. A user can use multiple computer components at one time and can vary the voltage on various output cords that service computer components. The present invention allows a user to retract output cords when not in use. The voltage amount for a selected output cord is shown in the indicator display, while indicator lights indicate whether its corresponding output cord is available for use. A green indicator light indicates the cord is available, and a red indicator light indicates the cord is already in use. Once an output cord is selected by a selector switch, the user can vary the output cord's voltage by adjusting a user input device to increase or decrease the voltage for that output cord. Once the desired voltage is reached, the selection is finalized by activating a “set” button.
