Abstract: Regional shapes are generated that respectively enclose geographic regions determined within a map area on the display screen. A pattern of vertices is generated within the map area as a set of intersections of map features. Regional shapes are formed by connecting subsets of vertices to form closed shapes. Data sets corresponding to the regional shapes are transmitted to a processor based device that is programmed to render the map area on a display screen with photo overlays that match the regional shapes.

Abstract: Digital images are associated with geographic regions within a map area to be rendered on a display screen. Photo overlays include pictorial subsets of the digital images are generated to match the shapes of respective geographic regions within the map area. The map area is rendered on the display screen with photo overlays matching geographic region shapes.

Abstract: A method and system for linking a web page to a portion of a video is provided. Users can enter comments into a video that include a start and end time index for identifying a portion of a video. Comments are indexed to the media presentations such that they may be searched and located, thus media playback can be executed from any comment. The system allocates a unique comment track to each user that can be turned on and off at will by users during playback.
