  • Publication number: 20180097811
    Abstract: A system and method for delegating permissions to a third party are presented. A request to access a first computing resource of a computer server is received from a first user. The first user is prompted to supply a first authentication credential for access to the first computing resource of the computer server and the first authentication credential is received from the first user. After the first authentication credential is received, a request to access a second computing resource of the computer server is received from the first user. An authentication database is accessed to identify a second user associated with the second computing resource, and a request for a second authentication credential is transmitted to a second user. The second authentication credential is received from the second user. When the second authentication credential is received from the second user, the first user is given access to the second computing resource.

  • Publication number: 20170111433
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for dynamically updating the content of a website or a web service via a text message. A text service may receive, at a text phone number, the text message sent by a user from a text device. The text device may have a user phone number. In preferred embodiments, the text service may have a plurality of text phone numbers that may be called by a plurality of users. The text service may produce an action code based, at least in part, on the text message, the text phone number called by the user, the user phone number or some combination thereof. The text service may transmit the action code to one or more hosting servers to alter a website which may then be published. In another embodiment, the text service may transmit the action code to web server(s) that may alter a web service for the user.

  • Publication number: 20160343055
    Abstract: A system and method are presented. An electronic communication encoding a listing of products that are available for purchase is received. The electronic communication identifies a second user. The listing of products is stored in a database in association with a key and a user accounts database is accessed to determine whether the first user is a delegate of the second user. When the user accounts database contains a record indicating that the first user is a delegate of the second user, the key is encoded into a link in a second electronic communication configured for display on a client device, and the second electronic communication is transmitted to the second user identified in the first electronic communication. The second electronic communication identifies the first user.

  • Patent number: 8135635
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for tracking time using a mobile computing device. The method steps include providing a first event manager on the mobile computing device for managing event records, wherein each event record is synchronized via an exchange server to a corresponding event record managed by a second event manager on a client machine, generating a time tracking record based on input from a user of the mobile computing device, wherein the time tracking record is added to the event records as a surrogate event record, transmitting the surrogate event record via the exchange server to the second event manager operatively coupled to a client application on the client machine, extracting time entry information from the surrogate event record using the client application for tracking time, and generating estimated time entry information automatically based on the event record.
