  • Patent number: 10981070
    Abstract: A service may be provided to a set of people when the people satisfy a proximity criterion. In one example, that set of people comprises users of a particular application and/or registrants with a particular system. A location monitor may determine people's location based on position data received from those people's devices (which may be obtained pursuant to appropriate permission in order to respect the device owners' interest in privacy). When the location monitor determines, based on people's positions, that a proximity criterion has been satisfied, the location monitor may cause a service to be provided that would not otherwise have been provided if the proximity criterion had not been satisfied. By providing additional service when a proximity criterion is satisfied, a reward in the virtual world is used to encourage people to gather in the physical world.

  • Patent number: 10154104
    Abstract: Technologies are described herein for providing intelligent delivery of actionable content. Metadata that describes user activities at a computer system is analyzed to determine a need for actionable content. Actionable content is dynamically delivered to one or more client consoles when need for actionable content is presented. The actionable content may be presented in a number of forms, including links to, or the delivery of, video, text and/or image content. Actionable content may also include links or deliverable environments for enabling automatic engagement of a specific application scenario. The discovery and delivery of the actionable content may be improved by the use of one or more feedback mechanisms.
