Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for computing relative score and enhancing one or more scores associated with data objects. In one method, the method receives, at a computing system, one or more data objects from a user. The method further extracts one or more internal and external parameters based on the one or more data objects. Subsequently, the method compares data objects of the user with corresponding data objects of one or more competing users, based at least in part on the one or more extracted parameters and the requirement included in the data object of the user. Further, in some embodiments, the data objects and requirements of the user are also compared with the corresponding data objects and requirements of one or more complementary users, based at least in part on the one or more extracted parameters.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for requirement feasibility scoring based on a data object and a social network website. In one method, one or more computing devices receive, over a network, a data object that is associated with a user and that includes a requirement. The computers obtain information from a social network website. The computers calculate, based on the data object and the information from the social network website, a score that indicates a likelihood of satisfying the requirement. The computers send the score over the network to a computing device of the user.

Abstract: One or more media applications are configured to facilitate Web page access. Such media applications receive a request from a user for access to a Web page. The Web page is retrieved from, for example, one or more Web servers, a file, and so on, and the content of the Web page is displayed within the media application. Display of the Web page content within the media application obviates the need to change applications to view the Web page content. By remaining within the application, a more natural and intuitive technique for inter-user communication is provided.

Abstract: A computer implemented method and an apparatus for determining user browsing behavior are provided. One or more web pages corresponding to a web domain are configured by associating the one or more web pages with tags.

The control file facilitates recording of user activity related to a web domain on one or more tabs of a web browser associated with the user device. Recorded user activity corresponding to at least one web browsing session is received and user browsing behavior is determined based on the recorded user activity.

Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products are provided for generating a feasibility score for a job search and for generating a suggestion for enhancing the score. In one method, one or more computing devices receive, over a network, a data object that is associated with a user who is engaged in a search for employment. The data object includes a résumé of the user and a requirement that is associated with the search. The computers calculate, based on the data object, a score that indicates a likelihood of receiving an offer for an employment position that satisfies the requirement. The computers generate a suggestion that identifies how the score may be increased. The computers send the suggestion over the network to a computing device of the user.

Abstract: A computer implemented method and an apparatus for determining user browsing behavior are provided. The method comprises associating one or more web pages corresponding to a web domain with tags to configure one or more tagged web pages. The method further comprises facilitating downloading of a control file on a user device upon detecting a first web page access event corresponding to a tagged web page from among the one or more tagged web pages. The control file is configured to facilitate recording of user activity related to a web domain on one or more tabs of a web browser associated with the user device. Furthermore, the method comprises receiving recorded user activity corresponding to at least one web browsing session and determining a user browsing behavior based on the recorded user activity.

Abstract: Techniques are provided which include obtaining, from a user, a query for review or purchase information from users in a social network of the user, relating to a product, service or brand that, for example, the user may be considering or intending to purchase. Based at least in part on the query, review or purchase information is obtained from multiple users in a social network of the user, relating to the product, service or brand, and this information is used in formulating a reply to the user. Collected information may also be used in advertising targeted to the user.

Abstract: A system and method for receiving a search request comprising one or more key words; providing a plurality of web links associated with search results generated responsive to the search request; providing a portion of dynamic information associated with the search results; and rendering a search results page to include the portion of the dynamic information along with the search results.
