摘要： Described is a technology by which a mobile computing device such as a mobile telephone operates differently based on detected proximity to another mobile device with which the first mobile device has a defined relationship. For example, the first mobile device may transfer content to the second mobile computing device when proximity corresponds to a non-cellular communications coupling, such as Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi coupling. In this manner, content transfer is deferred until a non-cellular coupling exists. The mobile device (or both devices) may output a notification to indicate that the other mobile computing device has been detected within a threshold proximity, such as via GPS data or by being within the same cellular tower. The type and/or settings of an output notification may vary based on different thresholds.

摘要： A connection manager manages connections for associated user devices by determining whether an incoming connection has been answered at a user device, and if so then generating and transmitting silencing commands to associated user devices using first and second wireless communication modes, with one mode being faster. Connections can comprise phone calls, and modes can comprise push and Bluetooth® messaging. The connection manager can instruct device outputs to provide connection alerts, limited to visual alerts when an associated user device is active, listen for associated user device communications, and instruct device outputs to stop providing alerts when a silencing command is received. Further, a connection manager can receive a signal regarding a headset status, route an outside connection from a phone to the headset when the headset is active or to another device when the headset is not active, detect a change in headset status, and reroute the connection accordingly.

摘要： A device may obtain information. The information may represent a distance between a first user device and a second user device. The first user device and the second user device may share a destination address. The device may receive a first message associated with a call. The first message may be received based on the call having been made to the destination address. The device may determine, based on the information, whether to provide a second message associated with the call or a notification associated with the call. The device may selectively provide the second message or the notification based on determining whether to provide the second message or the notification.

摘要： Approaches presented herein enable determining whether to allow a communication to a recipient using a communication device based on one or more classifications of nearby individuals. Specifically, location awareness technology is leveraged to identify individuals near an intended recipient of a communication. Through review and analysis of information related to the individuals gathered from social networking outlets (e.g., Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.) and/or gathered from the recipient's communication device, a classification is assigned to each individual. Based on the classifications, a determination is made as to whether the intended communication mode is to be allowed.

摘要： This disclosure relates to system and method for managing an unsuccessful communication session between a source user and a target user. In one embodiment, the method comprises determining a plurality of correlative contacts between the source user and the target user from one or more communication platforms, and scoring the plurality of correlative contacts based on one or more proximity parameters among the source user, each of the plurality of correlative contacts, and the target user. The method further comprises generating an initial set of correlative contacts based on the scoring, presenting the initial set of correlative contacts along with a plurality of selectable communication recourses, initiating a communication with at least one of the initial set of correlative contacts upon selection of a corresponding communication recourse, and providing a plurality of selectable recourses to reach out to the target user based on the communication.

摘要： A method for communicating location information to a device includes receiving, at a computer system that implements a social networking service, location information that represents a geographic location of a device associated with a first user; associating, by the computer system, the received location information with a profile associated with the first user; and sending, from the computer system to a device associated with a second user, a message that is generated based at least in part on the location information.

摘要： A method and apparatus are to provide status information about a call recipient and information about other users located in a same area as the call recipient. A method for providing information about the call recipient by a user device includes initiating a call transmission to the call recipient; receiving forwarding information corresponding to the call transmission; and outputting information about the call recipient and information about users located in a same area as the call recipient, based on the forwarding information.

摘要： Described herein are systems, apparatuses, and methods for performing proximity-based authentication operations using received signal strength indicator (RSSI) values. An expected proximity of devices to be paired is used to determine whether to execute a wireless personal area network (WPAN) connection process. This expected proximity is correlated with the RSSI value of received signals. By utilizing the RSSI value of received signals, embodiments do not utilize any additional hardware for performing the described proximity-based authentication process, and in some implementations, do not utilize any additional processes or routines to determine an RSSI value (e.g., some devices utilize RSSI values in order to adjust output power levels of transmitted signals, and thus, already execute processes or routines to determine RSSI values).

摘要： Novel tools and techniques that provide enhanced wireline services at one or more known wireline locations. In some cases, these tools and techniques involve determining that a subscriber is at one or more of the known wireline locations based on a detected location of the subscriber's wireless device (e.g., wireless phone, portable computer, etc.). Once the subscriber's presence at that wireline location has been detected, enhanced services can be provided to a wireline telephone at that location.
