The presentation information includes at least one indicator configured to identify, in a user interface on the display device, the feed item as having the one or more attributes satisfying the one or more filter parameters. The presentation information can be stored on one or more storage mediums.

Abstract: Techniques for providing polymorphic query requests. A request is received that has at least a database query. The database query comprises at least an expression using a polymorphic relationship. The request is processed utilizing the polymorphic relationship. A user-readable result is provided for the query where the result is defined by at least the polymorphic relationship.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for regulating interaction with respect to an object in a database. One exemplary method involves creating an engagement record associated with the object in the database and in response receiving a request for a database activity with respect to the object from a user, determining whether the user is authorized to initiate the database activity with respect to the object based on a protection status indicated by the engagement record for the object. When the first user is authorized, the database is updated the database to reflect the requested database activity associated with the object and the protection status of the engagement record is updated in response to the database activity. After updating the protection status of the engagement record, subsequent database activity with respect to the object initiated by a second user is regulated based on the updated protection status.

Abstract: Methods and systems for maintaining the confidentiality of data provided by an organization for storage on a third party database system are provided. The data can be encrypted on an internal network of the organization and sent to the third party database system for storage. The third party database system can associate metadata with the encrypted data and can store the encrypted data. Accordingly, when a request for the encrypted data is received from a computing device communicating with an internal network of the organization, the encrypted data and associated metadata can be sent to the computing device. A key that is stored on an internal network of the organization can be called through an applet, which utilizes information within the metadata to locate the key on the internal network of the organization.

Abstract: A portion data structure representing a portion extracted from a formatted source document is described. A portion data structure contains a first subtree of nodes that is modeled after a second subtree of a complete hierarchical representation of the formatted source document. Explicit formatting attribute values are specified for nodes of the first subtree only where a value calculated for the formatting attribute in a node of the first subtree differs from a value calculated for the formatting attribute in the corresponding node in the second subtree at a time when the node of the first subtree descends from a reset node specifying standardized formatting attribute values. The contents of the portion data structure are usable to display the portion extracted from the formatted source document in a context other than the formatted source document.
