摘要:
The present invention provides a method and/or system for extracting or scraping links, which may be in the form of uniform resource locators (URLs), from an information source such as a Web page displayed on a Web browser, based on a rule set or a template, or based on a selection of links, and adding the extracted or scraped links to another interface in order to facilitate navigating the extracted links. The extracted or scraped links are selectable by a user of the interface to cause the Web browser to display information corresponding to the selected links listed in the interface. Controls associated with the interface may allow the user to move forward and backward through the links listed in the interface.
摘要:
A mobile device is described that stores and renders content. Access to certain content is predicated at least upon receiving a particular wireless signal from an external or separate device that has previously been associated with the mobile device or with content stored on the mobile device.
摘要:
A method and system for placing an order to purchase an item via the Internet. The order is placed by a user at a client system and received by a server system. The client system can display information identifying the item and, for each of multiple procurement options having information related to ordering the identified item, can display an indication of the procurement option such that selection of the displayed indication represents an ordering of the identified item using the information of the procurement option. In response to selection of a displayed indication, the client system can send to a server computer a request to order the identified item using the information of the procurement option for the selected indication.

A device searches for an available network. The device automatically sends a request message to an identified available network. After the device receives a response message from the identified available network, the device selects a language and/or other device setting based on contents of the response message.

A demonstration device that provides interactive demonstrations receives user input during a demonstration session. The demonstration device causes a demonstration account or demonstration credential to be generated for a user based on the user input, the demonstration account or demonstration credential being associated with the demonstration session. The demonstration device transmits demonstration session information for the demonstration session to a demonstration server. The user is able to continue the demonstration session from another demonstration-capable device based on the demonstration account or demonstration credential.
摘要:
Parallel generic and non-generic versions of a Web site allow a user of the site to either remain anonymous (if accessing the generic version) or allow user information to be collected (if accessing the non-generic version). In one exemplary embodiment, a Web site may provide a user an interface for entering and processing a search query. A search query processed by a generic version of the Web site includes a marker that informs a Web server supporting the generic Web site that the user wishes to remain anonymous. A parallel non-generic version of the Web site may also interface with the same Web server as interfaced by the generic Web site, but permit a data collecting scheme at the Web server to collect user-specific or user-identifiable information. Such user information, if collected, can be used by the Web server to enhance the user's experience with the Web site.
摘要:
A method and system are disclosed that associate search keywords with relevant images from within sources, such as books, magazines, journals, etc., thereby making the images available for search using the associated keyword. Such associations enable a search engine to identify, in response to a search query, a relevant image within the source that would have not been provided otherwise. For example, an image of the Titanic that appears in a historical or cultural book may be associated with the search keyword “ship.” Accordingly, if a user submits the search query “ship and Infamous Ocean Voyages” (i.e., the keyword “ship” and the title of a book), an image of the Titanic from the book entitled “Infamous Ocean Voyages” may be returned among the search results.

摘要:
A smart harness may be coupled to an electronic device. The smart harness may communicate with the electronic device by an exchange of signals when the harness is secured to the electronic device. The electronic device and/or smart harness may operate in various modes based on the communications or lack of communications, such as when the exchange of signals is interrupted. The various modes may be selected from a non-exhaustive group of a limited functionality mode, an alarm mode, a full feature mode, and a non-active mode.

A single sign-on system accepts master credentials from a user device and/or application, and automatically signs on to supported services using account credentials corresponding to those services. If the user has not created an account used by a particular device or application, the system can automatically interact with the account service to create the account. Similarly, if the device or application that relies on the account has not already been registered with the account, the system automatically interacts with the account to register the device or account.
