Abstract: A method of digital image management is described for a mobile device having both a camera capable of taking digital images and an ability to communicate with the internet. There is an internet schema resident on the Internet and a mobile device schema resident in the mobile device. The data fields of the mobile device schema are updated to correspond with the internet schema whenever the mobile device connects with the internet schema. A graphical user interface resident in the mobile device allows a user to input, into the mobile device schema, metadata descriptive of the subject of a digital image contemporaneously with taking of the digital image. This metadata is independent of the digital image, but linked to the digital image for future recall. The graphical user interface resident in the mobile device also allows the user to upload to the internet schema and grant permission for viewing access.

Abstract: A substantially moisture-proof, airtight dispenser for both storing and dispensing several flattened articles such as diagnostic test strips. The inventive dispenser includes a novel pivotable housing that a user need merely grab and squeeze to eject a test strip. Independent movement of the user's fingers to push a button or turn a knob is unnecessary to dispense a strip, which makes the present invention well suited for diabetics suffering from nerve damage in their extremities and other complications resulting from the disease. The invention includes a novel flexible arm member and pusher head that engage and push an article from the dispenser as the two parts of the housing are pivoted together. The articles are dispensed through an exit that is configured with a novel flexible seal that maintains the dispenser substantially airtight. Several inventive seal embodiments and methods of making the same are disclosed.
