Enabling complete viewing of selected programming content is provided. In response to receiving an input data stream from a programming service provider, the input data stream is stored in a supplemental storage. In response to a user selecting a programming channel after a program starts to air, the input data stream is stored in a programming storage. Then, the stored data stream is outputted from the supplemental storage to a viewing device.

A method, medium and implementing processing system are provided for facilitating teleconference-based meeting moderation by the addition of a “live feedback” feature, with instrumentation such as by means of an instant messaging systems when instant messaging conference systems equipped with this feature are used to supplement teleconferences, the participants provide instant feedback (anonymously, if desired) to the meeting moderator. The audience can let the moderator know their valuation of the current discussion. Based on feedback, the moderator can take appropriate action, such as to steer the conversation into areas that will be received favorably by the meeting participants.

A method and system are provided in which a charging process for rechargeable batteries is controlled in accordance with selected predetermined variable conditions. In an exemplary embodiment, a user is enabled to select the predetermined conditions under which the charging of a battery is suspended until such conditions have changed. Such conditions include, for example, physical location of the battery being charged and/or the time and/or date when the battery is being charged. A user GUI is provided to enable a user to input selected times and/or dates and/or locations when the device containing the battery is likely to be away from a charging source and needs to be fully charged, and/or selected times and/or dates and/or locations when the device is likely to have access to a power source and the battery is enabled to be charged only to a storage level.
摘要:
A system and related methods for providing a handler for requests to access a wireless network, operable by or separate from an enhanced personal firewall system, which obtains connection-related information from the operating system, network interface drivers, or both, and then provides that information to a controller which determines to allow or deny access. By collecting certain connection-related information, new levels and granularities of control are allowed and enabled. The process is equally well suited for implementation by a wireless device which may be in range of multiple servers or networks, such that the device may allow different levels of access to the device by the different servers or networks according to the collected connection-related information.
摘要:
An enhanced personal firewall system having an inter-firewall connection listener which binds to a specified communications port and listens for inbound and/or outbound connection requests; and an inter-firewall controller which establishes a trusted communications through a local firewall and a remote firewall by exchanging public keys, a signed trusted computer firewall request, and using the keys to determine if a local key storage indicates previous authorization to trusted communications. If not, then a user of the targeted resource is notified and prompted to authorize the access. If so, then the firewall rules protecting the targeted resource are modified, even if temporarily, to allow the requesting firewall to have trusted access.
