Abstract: A food product mat assembly for supporting a delivered food product above a support surface includes a mat that is positionable on a support surface in front of an entry of a building to have a delivered food product positioned thereon. The mat is foraminous to facilitate water to drain therethrough thereby inhibiting the delivered food product from being exposed to the water. A plurality of ridges each extends upwardly from the mat to support the delivered food item above the mat.

Abstract: Injection of metadata using composite content. In an embodiment, one or more content items are received, and data is retrieved from a plurality of metadata sources. A visual depiction of metadata is generated for at least one of the content item(s) based on the retrieved data. A composite content item is generated to comprise at least a portion of each of the content item(s) and the visual depiction of the metadata.

Abstract: Injection of metadata into content items. In an embodiment, a content item is received. Data is retrieved from a plurality of metadata sources by, at least, retrieving first data from at least a first one of the plurality of metadata sources, and using the retrieved first data to retrieve second data from at least a second one of the plurality of metadata sources. Descriptive metadata is generated based on at least the retrieved first data and the retrieved second data, and associated with the content item.

Abstract: Video and audio signals are streamed to remote viewers that are connected to a communication network. A host server receives an originating video and audio signal that may arrive from a single source or from a plurality of independent sources. The host server provides any combination of the originating video and audio signals to viewers connected to a communication network. A viewer requests the host server provide a combination of video and audio signals from the host server. The host server transmits an instruction set to be executed by the viewer. The instruction set causes the viewer to transmit parameters to the host user, including parameters relating to the processing capabilities of the viewer. The host server then transmits multimedia data to the viewer according to the received parameters. A plurality of viewers may be simultaneously connected to the host server.
