A system is described for displaying images of a virtual three-dimensional book having one or more virtual pages. The system comprises a display system capable of executing a display program wherein images of the virtual three-dimensional book are produced on the display system. A degree of interest (DOI) function is provided for allocating available space on the display system. A page selection function may provide a user-selectable scale along a long axis of the virtual book for selecting virtual pages. Virtual chapter tabs may also be provided for navigating within the virtual book. The display system may also include a page flipping function with several different page flipping speeds and several different page flipping animations for moving between virtual pages in the virtual book. Moreover, a scroll bar function provided to facilitate page navigation wherein space on the scroll bar is allocated using a DOI function. Finally, a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable code embodied therein for producing images of a virtual three-dimensional book is also disclosed.

An information transfer system includes a content exchange appliance and an information communication device. The content exchange appliance includes a transmitter that transmits information to be stored. The information communication device is configured to communicate with the content exchange appliance and the content exchange appliance transmits the information for storage when the communication between the content exchange appliance and the information communication device indicates that the information communication device has been hovering within a given proximity to the content exchange appliance for at least a hovering time.
摘要:
A system for N-space navigation of digital data sets. The system includes an electronic tag having a digitally readable identifier, an electronic tag reader configured to read the identifier of the electronic tag, and a computing system connected to the electronic tag reader to provide digital navigation services of N-space data sets in response to reading the identifier of the electronic tag. The computing system generates at least one transitional data point in N-space for output between a currently displayed start point and a target point referenced by the identifier.
摘要:
A system and method for providing an application programming interface for interfacing with audio files within a social networking service are provided. The method includes receiving, at the one or more computing devices, an ordered list of social networking contacts associated with a member of the social networking service. The ordered list of social networking contacts is arranged according to a ranking of the social networking contacts. The method also includes receiving a list of audio files associated with the member of the social networking service. The method also includes receiving a set of instructions. The set of instructions is configured to be implemented with the ordered list of social networking contacts and the list of audio files. The method also includes interfacing with the ordered list of social networking contacts or the list of audio files according to the set of instructions to modify the list of audio files.
摘要:
A wireless communication device configured to transmit and receive near-field communication including data associated with the purchase of a product. Supplemental content associated with the purchased can be identified by the wireless device and/or a merchant device and provided to the wireless device. Supplemental content may include machine-readable and machine-storable work product and instruction, document, electronic media, computer-implemented instructions, or any form of content that can exist in a computer-based environment. The supplemental content may be determined based on information about the user, information about the product or service being purchased, and information about the point-of-sale.

摘要:
A system is described for displaying images of a virtual three-dimensional book having one or more virtual pages. The system comprises a display system capable of executing a display program wherein images of the virtual three-dimensional book are produced on the display system. The display system may include a magnification function producing a virtual magnifier moveable over the virtual pages. The display system may also include a the “stretchy page” display method wherein one section of the page is directly magnified, while other adjacent sections may be directly magnified in a horizontal or vertical direction, but not both directions. Moreover, a virtual page may also be tilted about a central axis of the virtual page to accommodate viewing of a desired section on the display system. Finally, a computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable code embodied therein for producing images of a virtual three-dimensional book is also disclosed.
