  • Patent number: 10230672
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for inserting a search box into a mobile terminal messaging dialog. Upon receiving a dialog message (e.g., an email message) from a first user device, the method determines the format (e.g., IMAP) of the dialog message in order to insert a similarly-formatted search box. Then, the method modifies the dialog message by inserting the selected search box into the dialog message. The method receives a request from a second user (at a mobile terminal) and the method transmits the outbound dialog message with the inserted search box to the second user's mobile terminal. The second user's mobile terminal supports a web browser, and some dialog messages include pre-populated text in the search box, the pre-populated text based on the dialog message from the first user device. The second user browses using the inserted search box without having to explicitly launch a browser.

  • Patent number: 9600807
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for server-side modification of messages during a mobile terminal message exchange. Upon receiving a dialog message (e.g., an email message) from a first user device, the method determines the format (e.g., IMAP) of the dialog message in order to insert similarly-formatted additional content. Then, the method modifies the dialog message by inserting selected additional content into the dialog message. The method receives a request from a second user (at a mobile terminal) and the method transmits the outbound dialog message with the inserted additional content to the second user's mobile terminal. The second user's mobile terminal supports native applications for reviewing the additional content, and some modified dialog messages include personalized content, including personalization based on the dialog message from the first user device. The second user reviews the personalized content on the mobile terminal without having to explicitly launch a browser.

  • Publication number: 20130159093
    Abstract: A system and method for generating revenue based on a custom click to advertisement over IMAP are disclosed. The system and method may receive an email from a first user and store the email from the first user on a server. In some embodiments, a custom click to call advertisement may be created for the stored email. The custom click to call advertisement may be inserted into the email. In some embodiments, the server may transmit the stored email with the inserted custom click to call advertisement to a second user. The custom click to call advertisement may be inserted as dynamic HTML tags within an email protocol. In some embodiments, a use of the custom click to call advertisement transmitted with the email to the second user may be detected.
