Abstract: An example method includes receiving, from an application of a client device, a request, generated based on originating content provided by an originating web server, for target content associated with a target web server. The method also includes identifying a referrer tag in the request that identifies an originating web service associated with the originating web server device or an attribution tag in the request that identifies a trigger event that caused the attribution tag to be included within the originating content. The method additionally includes determining that the referrer tag or the attribution tag is in a set of predefined tags that classifies the originating web service as a notification-like source and, in response, transmitting instructions to the application. Reception of the instructions causes the client device to display a prompt requesting permission to provide notifications from a target web service associated with the target web server device.

Abstract: Implementations disclose livestream conversation notifications. A method includes receiving, via a first user device over a network, a livestream video; presenting, via the first user device to a first user, the livestream video; selecting a second user with whom the livestream video is to be shared, the selecting being based on relevance of content of the livestream video to the second user; and causing a transmission, to a second user device of the second user, of a notification that at least the first user is watching the livestream video.

Abstract: Implementations disclose a notification delivery mechanism for present viewing users. A method includes identifying a notification to be sent to a user having a plurality of user devices; determining presence of the user on a first user device of the plurality of user devices; determining whether a media player on the first user device is playing media content; and upon determining that the media player on the first user device is playing the media content, transmitting the notification to the first user device without transmitting the notification to other user devices of the plurality of user devices.

Abstract: Systems, methods and cartridges for carbonating or otherwise dissolving gas in a precursor liquid, such as water, to form a beverage. A gas source can be provided in a cartridge which is used to generate gas that is dissolved into the precursor liquid. A beverage medium, such as a powdered drink mix or liquid syrup, may be provided in the same, or a separate cartridge as the gas source and mixed with the precursor liquid to form a beverage. The use of one or more cartridges for the gas source and/or beverage medium may make for an easy to use and mess-free system for making sparkling beverages, e.g., in the consumer's home.

Abstract: A hearing test system comprising: a computer system comprising a visual display for a user to select out of a plurality of sound types a desired sound type of a test sound for transmission to a subject and to select out of a plurality of computer-based input events a desired computer-based input event for registering a subject response to said test sound.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for handling a plurality of tubes or vials, and for applying and removing caps to and from tubes or vials, which may be disposed in a rack. The apparatus and methods are well adapted for automated capping and de-capping using generic or off-the-shelf tubes, vials, and caps, such as are commonly used for laboratory samples and reagents.

Abstract: A velocity accelerator system increases a velocity of capital when developing, marketing and selling products. The system includes a user acceptance module for receiving parameters describing a system user, and for analyzing the parameters to determine whether or not the system user is acceptable to the system; a sales monitoring module for monitoring and/or facilitating sales of products from the system user, accepted by the system, to customers of the system; and a sales buffering module for receiving payment associated with the sales of the products, and for providing to the system user, accepted by the system, payments which are at least one of: temporally in advance of receipt of payment by the system of documented sale of the products to the customers, at temporal intervals which are more frequent than receipt of payment by the system of documented sale of the products to the customers.

Abstract: The subject matter provided herein relates to substrates for desorbing and ionizing analytes, and kits and methods of use thereof. The substrate provided herein comprises a porous semiconductor, a fluorous initiator, and a photoactive compound containing a fluorous group.

Abstract: A cordless electric snow thrower is disclosed having a separate and distinct battery housing containing a battery being positioned on a handle of the cordless snow thrower. The cordless snow thrower may include an electronic controller that allows a user to rotate a chute of the cordless snow thrower to alter a direction in which snow is thrown. The cordless snow thrower may also include a light that provides sufficient light to allow the user to use the cordless snow thrower at night to clear snow. The placement of the battery housing provides balance to the cordless snow thrower and allows power to be provided to all of the electronic devices and components of the cordless snow thrower.
