Abstract: System and method for improving data input by using word frequency to text predict input. Other systems and methods include analyzing words already contained in a document (e.g. spell checking and OCR) and using word frequency to create a proxy system to reduce the space required to store data, allowing for more efficient usage of storage and enhancing the embedded content of matrix codes. The system displays the most common words in a language based upon the previously entered or displayed word(s), or the previously entered or displayed character or characters. Words with the most common frequency of use with the prior word(s) are displayed in a table to enable the user to quickly select one of the displayed words for rapid data entry. The input device can be a touch-sensitive display or non-touch sensitive type device.

Abstract: Method of and system for reducing data entry errors that ascertains a subset of keys that can be selected by a user based upon the respective likelihood that each key follows a previously selected key within a predetermined language, corpus, or subset thereof, and controls the display of the keys within an input device so that the keys within the ascertained subset are displayed in a visually distinguishable manner from the keys that not within the ascertained subset. In a touch screen device, the keys that are displayed are part of the soft keys displayed on the screen. In a system that includes an actual physical keyboard, the appearance of select keys of the keyboard can be modified in various manners, including the use of an LCD display or other controllable lighting mechanism disposed within the keyboard. Multiple additional techniques for reducing data entry also are disclosed.

Abstract: A method for providing rewards to a user who reviews an advertiser's web site in response to clicking a banner advertisement, includes the steps of providing banner advertisements for a first group of a plurality of advertisers on a plurality of websites of a second group; linking the banner advertisements to respective websites of the first group of advertisers; bringing the user to a central website responsible for providing the rewards when the user clicks on a banner advertisement; determining at the central website if the user is a registered user; permitting the user to register at the central website if the user is not a registered user; providing rewards to each registered user for each new banner advertisement clicked on by the user; and then bringing the user to the respective website of the first group of advertisers.
