Method and apparatus for parental control of electronic messaging contacts of a child is described. One aspect of the invention relates to communication of an electronic message from sender to recipient over a text-based communication channel established between sender and receiver clients on a network. A host on the network is configured to generate a unique identifier for the sender and maintain a log for the recipient. A first proxy module is configured to receive the electronic message from the sender client, embed the unique identifier associated with the sender therein, and forward the electronic message towards the receiver client over the text-based communication channel. A second proxy module is configured to receive the electronic message from the text-based communication channel, remove the unique identifier from the electronic message, send the unique identifier to the host for storage in the log, and forward the electronic message to receiver client.

Outbound network traffic originating from a client is filtered, to check for files targeted for upload to remote sites. When a file targeted for upload to a remote site is detected, a remote storage location at which the client's backup data is stored is checked for a copy of the detected file. If a copy of the file is located at the remote backup site, that copy is substituted for the client copy in the network transmission to the target remote site. By uploading online copies of files when available, the client upload experience is much faster, and local bandwidth is preserved for other tasks.

A publisher uses a toolbox to graphically define web forms, by selecting and configuring components such as buttons, text boxes, menus, etc. Underlying code for the web forms (such as Extensible Markup Language, or XML) is automatically generated. The publisher defines transforms (such as Extensible Stylesheet Markup Language Transforms, or XSLTs) that process the exchange of data between the front end and the backend web service. The transforms and the code underlying the web forms is automatically combined into a frontend to the web service. The web based frontend is published on a user site, such that users can access the backend web service through the frontend.

Methods, apparati, and computer-readable media for regulating a user's access to a Web page. A method embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of hashing (31) a URL associated with a Web page requested by the user; comparing (32) the hashed URL with a list (24) of pre-stored URL hashes; and granting (34) or denying (37) access to the requested Web page based upon results of the comparing step (32).

A computer-implemented method for automatically synchronizing online communities may comprise identifying login information for a first user account associated with the first online community, accessing the first user account using the login information for the first user account, obtaining information from the first user account, and modifying, based on the information obtained from the first user account, a second user account associated with a second online community. Corresponding systems and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

A computer-implemented method for automatically configuring virtual private networks may include 1) broadcasting by a client on a network to discover a virtual private network server configured to manage virtual private networks, 2) discovering, by the client in response to the broadcast, the virtual private network server, 3) establishing a secure connection between the client and the virtual private network server in response to the discovery, and 4) receiving, by the client from the virtual private network server through the secure connection, configuration settings that enable the client to automatically connect to a virtual private network. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

The number of redundant content items provided to a user by a multi-source feed reader is automatically reduced. Each content item obtained by the multi-source feed reader from each feed to which the users subscribes is analyzed prior to being made available to the user. More specifically, the content items are analyzed to determine whether they are based on source content from different feeds. Each content item is searched for attributes indicating a source on which it is based. Where it is determined that a content item from a first feed is based on source content from a second feed, it is further determined whether the user subscribes to the second feed which the source content is from. If so, the specific received content item from the first feed is not provided to the user.

Computer-implemented methods and systems for simultaneously installing user-input-dependent software packages on multiple devices are disclosed. In one example, an exemplary method for performing such a task may comprise: 1) initiating installation of a software package on each of a plurality of client devices, 2) receiving, from each client device, a visual image generated during installation of the software package that depicts an installation step that requires user input, 3) consolidating the visual images into a consolidated view, 4) displaying, via an installation-management interface, the consolidated view to a user of the computing device, 5) receiving, via the installation-management interface, user input from the user for completing the installation step, and then 6) completing the installation step by sending the user input to each client device.
摘要:
A storage farm is maintained, on which user generated publishable content is stored. Users can copy generated content to the storage farm for automatic publishing to associated target sites. User login information for the plurality of publication sites is maintained, such that the system can use the login information to login to the various publication sites as a given user. The publishable content stored in the storage farm is compared to publishable content published on the associated publication sites. Responsive to finding publishable content on at least one publication site that is not present on the storage farm, that publishable content can be aggregated to the storage farm for future access by the associated user. Responsive to finding publishable content on the storage farm not published on an associated publication site, that publishable content can be automatically published.

An automated wireless synchronization platform allows users to synchronize files and folders between devices, while transparently providing content transformation services. The content transformation services ensure that content is synchronized to target devices in the appropriate format, at a proper balance of size and quality to be ideally output on the target devices.
