A GUI control for entering a user selection from a list of possible selections in which the user can “spin” through a list of items shown on preview and postview option lists. The control allows the user to spin forwards and backwards, with a preview list of items and a postview list of items being displayed on opposing sides of the currently selected item dialog box. By providing visibility to the upcoming and recently past selections during the spin, a user can operate the spin control at a higher speed, thereby reducing the amount of time necessary to find the desired item on the list.

A web browser with a set of controls which allows a user to select several page hold modes of operation when selecting standard or plain hyperlinks. In a first state, the web browser software will display pages in a way unaltered from it's standard functionality. In a second state, selection of any hyperlink on the parent page shown in the original instance of the web browser will result in the spawning of a new instance of the web browser in a new window showing the selected document, and the parent page will be “held” in the original instance of the web browser. The user may select many hyperlinks on the parent page, and many new instances of the web browser would be spawned. In the third state, only one additional web browser instance will created to display most recently selected document, and the parent page will be “held” in the original instance of the web browser. Finally, the web browser detects certain changes in the address of the document being viewed to the document selected by the user, and automatically updates the parent instance of the web browser to display a new parent page in the original instance of the web browser. The change criteria may be specified by the user, such as changes in host name and domain only, or change in host, domain or subdomain.

An enhanced web browser includes a visual history browser which allows recording of browsing sessions and visual replay or review of browsing sessions. As web sites are visited during a normal browsing session, images of the pages viewed are rendered and stored in the system's memory, and are keyed to entries in the web browser's history log. When the web browser user selects the visual history review control such as a graduated slider control, he or she may move the control forward or backward “in time” as the rendered images are displayed in a viewing window, along with optional information such as the originating web site for each address. The user may stop the control at a position in history, and select to re-point the browser to the web address selected from the history file. Thus, the user may visually browse back and forth through the history of web browser until he or she finds the page desired, and then jump to that page on the web.

A rubber band variable-rate GUI control for use in conjunction with GUI controls, such as sliders, scroll bars, virtual joysticks, and oppositional buttons (up/down, left/right, plus/minus, next/previous, etc.). A user may place a pointer or cursor over a GUI control, select (e.g. click and hold a mouse button) and drag away from the control, and a virtual rubber band extending between the pointer and the GUI control is displayed. The further the user moves or “pulls” the pointer from the GUI control, the thinner and more elyptical the rubber band is displayed, and the faster the selections scrolls or the control operation is repeated. When the user moves the pointer closer to GUI control, the rubber band is displayed fatter and more circular in shape, and the scrolling or control operation repetition slows.

A technique for provisioning computing environment resources based on social media analysis includes monitoring, using a data processing system, references (e.g., hyperlinks) provided by a first website to detect an anticipated flash crowd for a web-accessible resource (e.g., second website). The technique also includes generating, using the data processing system, a notice to allocate resources associated with the web-accessible resource to service the anticipated flash crowd.

Systems, methods and computer program products for automatic network-based persistent XML storage and management. Exemplary embodiments include a method including loading an XDM widget having internal XML, sending an XCAP GET request via an XCAP URI parameter, retrieving an existing XML document at a location associated with the XCAP URI parameter, invoking an initializer callback function via the XDM widget to populate the internal XML with default values associated with an etag, wherein the etag is null, sending an XCAP PUT request via the XCAP URI to store the existing XML document, executing etag header scenarios, providing XML management functions to automatically publish changes to the server, and trigger a timer function to poll for updates from the server and display the resulting updates to the user's screen via a render callback function.

A video display system for use in a vehicle, includes a display disposed in a vehicle for viewing by an operator of the vehicle and a controller in communication with the display. The controller determines when the vehicle is in motion. The controller prohibits display of video information by the display when the vehicle is in motion and stores the video information that is not being displayed. The controller permits display of the stored video information when the vehicle is not in motion. A method of video display in a vehicle is also provided. The method includes determining when a vehicle is in motion, prohibiting display of video information when the vehicle is in motion, storing the video information that is not being displayed, and permitting display of the video information that was stored, by an operator of the vehicle when the vehicle is not in motion.
