摘要： Social network relationships are “aged” in that if a social network friend has not communicated with a user's social network site in a certain amount of time, then the friend is downgraded to “acquaintance” level automatically. One result may be that the “acquaintance” does not see certain postings to the website. The “aging” setting can be programmable on the social networking site so that users can elect to employ the “aging” or not. The downgrading of social standing of people in social network allows a more streamlined and private way to communicate with those with whom the user has an on-going social network relationship. Similarly, based on aging, “close friends” can be automatically downgraded to just “friends”. When the aging happens, the aged friend may be cut off from certain postings, mimicking a natural way that relationships evolve.

摘要翻译： 社会网络关系“老化”，如果一个社交网络朋友在一定时间内没有与用户的社交网站进行通信，那么朋友自动降级为“熟人”级别。 一个结果可能是“熟人”没有看到网站上的某些贴子。 “老化”设置可以在社交网站上编程，以便用户可以选择使用“老化”。 降低社会网络中的人们的社会地位使得与用户具有正在进行的社交网络关系的人更加精简和私密的沟通方式。 同样，根据老龄化，“亲密朋友”可以自动降级为“朋友”。 当老龄化发生时，老年朋友可能会从某些帖子中被切断，模仿一种自然的关系发展的方式。

摘要： A candidate companion screen device is located by a primary display device as being in the same room as the primary device using a camera and image recognition, and in response ancillary content related to content being shown on the primary display device is provided to the companion screen device. The ancillary content may be provided from the Internet based on information in the content being presented on the primary display device by, e.g., providing a link to a website to the companion device.

摘要： A candidate companion screen device is located by a primary display device as being in the same room as the primary device, and in response ancillary content related to content being shown on the primary display device is provided to the companion screen device. The ancillary content may be provided from the Internet based on information in the content being presented on the primary display device by, e.g., providing a link to a website to the companion device. The primary display device may locate the companion screen device as being in the same room by comparing Bluetooth and/or Wi-Fi signal strengths from the companion screen device to a threshold, and if the threshold is met, the device is sent a message to link to ancillary content or is automatically linked to ancillary content.

摘要： An electronic visual display includes a screen having a plurality of canvases each configured to display content from at least one content source. The content displayed on each one of the plurality of canvases may be independent of the content displayed on each other one of the plurality of canvases. The display also includes a single software-implemented user agent adapted to receive user selections associated with at least one of the canvases and configured to manage each of the plurality of canvases independently of one another according to the user selections. The user agent is configured to prevent the canvases from overlaying any portion of one another.

摘要： A device is enabled to display Internet TV by accessing a management server with a secret unique ID and receiving back from the server, assuming the ID is approved, a user token and a service list of content servers with knowledge of the user token. A user can select a content server which causes the device to upload its user token and in response receive a content list from the content server, from which content can be selected for display. Neither list may be modified by the device and the device can access only content on a content list. The service list may be tailored for the geographic location of the device.

摘要： Techniques are described for using ATSC 3.0 to augment in-stadium (including in-arena) video feeds. In addition to a central stadium large screen view, spectators can use their mobile devices or view wall-mounted TVs around the stadium to receive in-stadium special feeds broadcast using ATSC 3.0, but not necessarily broadcast beyond the stadium and its environs.
