Abstract:
A method and apparatus for facilitating communication amongst a plurality of applications associated with at least one device is provided. The method may comprise receiving, by an extension module, a request from a first application to communicate with one or more applications, establishing a communication link between the first and at least one of the one or more applications, wherein the communication link allows the first and the at least one of the one or more applications to communicate at least one of data or control information, and storing, by the extension module, at least a portion of data communicated between the communicating applications.
Abstract:
The subject matter disclosed herein relates to systems, methods, etc. for location source determination. For example implementations, a method is described in which a request for a location of a user that is associated with a logical identifier is obtained. A determination may be made as to which type(s) of information (e.g., geographical information, calendar information, online information, etc.) is (are) to be used to obtain a location of the user based at least in part on one or more rules that are associated with the user. Other example implementations are described herein.
Abstract:
A method of obtaining contextually relevant content by a wireless communications device is provided. The method may comprise obtaining, by a wireless communications device (WCD), a destination device identifying item, transmitting the destination device identifying item to a contextual content server, wherein the contextual content server determines one or more contextually relevant content items by processing the received destination device identifying item and a WCD location value, and receiving, from the contextual content server, at least one of the one or more contextually relevant content items.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for manipulating web content to present substantially uniform content to a client is provided. The method may comprise receiving a web content request from the client, selecting a template associated with the web content request, filtering the web content request using a dynamic filter associated with the template, transmitting the filtered web content request to a network, receiving a result associated with the transmitted filtered web content request, and mapping the result to a predefined structure associated with the template, the mapped result to be displayed to the client.
Abstract:
Providing for management of a dynamic mobile coupon (DMC) at a mobile device is described herein. Particularly, dynamic characteristics associated with the DMC, such as a redeemable value, can be utilized to browse, sort, search, recall, or redeem the DMC utilizing a user interface of the mobile device. In other aspects, a DMC management application can interact with server components to backup and store DMC data, synchronize dynamic information (e.g., a dynamic redeemable value), access or manage a user profile, interface with other mobile devices to accomplish sharing, trading, exchanging, selling the DMC, and so on. Accordingly, provided is an efficient and personable way to manage mobile coupons in a mobile operating environment and provide increased value and utility for a user of such coupons.
Abstract:
Apparatus and methods for messaging comprise obtaining a communication message including at least one messaging code, determining an authority-specific action corresponding to each messaging code, and initiating performance of each authority-specific action by execution of a software component. Each authority-specific action may vary depending on a controlling authority associated with the respective software component.
