Abstract: An online computer network utilization system for supporting an online skill competition such as guitar playing prowess among personal entrants and an online competitive contest associated with the skill competition where online consumer contestants can view, judge and contest with one another over the successes and failures of the skill competitors. The system handles the solicitation for entrants in the skill competition and online consumers for the viewing and judging of the competition as well as a fantasy sports-styled contest among viewers/judges, tracks performances, tabulate votes, declares winners, awards prizes and facilitates online advertising.

Abstract: An automated, computerized system for vicariously and remotely monitoring the conditions of a patient, providing professional counseling, and coaching the patient into sound behavior and health-enhancing activities. A computerized central installation receives, over a public communication network, patient's vital sign measurements such as blood pressure, glucose level, and pulse rate. The measurements are gathered at the patient's residence by a battery of instrumental monitoring devices, polled by the central installation at scheduled intervals, automatically checked by a central processing unit against preset limits and analyzed to generate diagnostics and assessments of patient's condition and are stored in libraries. The diagnostics and assessments are used to selectively retrieve from a data bank of prerecorded messages, feedback advice, past performance charts and motivating audiovisual programs stored in libraries.
