Abstract: A device locate service is described. In embodiment(s), a device locate request can be received to locate a device that is configured for mobile communication. A control command can then be communicated via a mobile communication network that activates the device to override configuration settings of the device and initiate one or more locate service functions, such as emit an audible tone, display a message, lock the device to disable device features, wipe data from a memory of the device, and/or transmit a GPS location signal. The device locate service can also receive the GPS location signal from the device, determine a location of the device from the GPS location signal, and communicate the location of the device for display at a computing device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for sharing personalizable cards via a computerized card service are provided. One disclosed method includes, at a card client program executable on a computing device, creating a personalizable card having extensible data, and sending a first instance of the personalizable card to a card service program. The method may further include, at the card service program, propagating the first instance of the personalizable card to a peer of the user, and at the card client program, updating the extensible data of the personalizable card. Upon updating the extensible data, the method may further include sending a second instance of the personalizable card to the card service program, and propagating the second instance of the personalizable card to the peer of the user. The personalizable card may be propagated according to propagation permissions set by the user.

Abstract: A unique system and method that facilitates synchronizing data across multiple accounts at about the same time is provided. The system and method involve configuring an intelligent set of synchronization rules that can apply to various data types from one or more user accounts or storage locations. In addition, the system or method can leverage off of existing search folders or search queries to configure the synchronization rules.
