Abstract: The invention is a transparent keyboard with translucent markings to show the functions of each key. It can rest over the screen of a computer, hand held device, smart phone or the like, without obstructing the screen or using it for marking the keys or reducing the size of the screen area that is used as a screen or monitor as against a keyboard. It can be made by translucent markings on existing touchscreen keyboards or a transparent layer over the touchscreen with translucent markings. It can be a transparent screen with programmable markings. It can be touch sensitive, yet use key layouts and sizes to prevent unintended key activation and ease multi finger typing.

Abstract: The invention is a keyboard which is rigid, less than 2.5 mm thin, ultra-light, with large and spaced, touch sensitive, finger friendly keys for fast and easy, multi-finger, one or two hands, even walk and type touch typing. Its keys shapes and arrangements enable a full alphabet set plus several funtions of such large and spaced keys on a pocket sized surface, each key denoting many characters. It has on-device, add-on and detached versions and many variations. Conventional Mobile keyboards are either desk opearbel type which are bulky requiring set up for use, or are tiny on-device type which shrink the device screen and have crammed, pressure sensitive keys. The inventions has the good features of both types of conventional keyboards, resolves problems of both and adds additional features.

Abstract: An on-line exchange, called TimeEx, to or on which Stars, typically Celebrities link or host their Websites, which Websites show their lives, houses, movements in recorded and or real time, or offer live interactive interviews to many or just one. Fans can log onto TimeEx, search for their favorite Star, pay the price to watch Stars Website, or even bid in an auction to have a one to many or one to one interview with the Star. The concept can be expanded in many ways, such as use by non celebrities, creation of an Exchange where Time Defined Merchandize such Ad Slots, personal time, airtime, etc. are bought and sold. Revenues can be earned by the Operator of TimeEx by charging Fans, Stars, Advertisers, Intermediaries, Providers, etc, and by Stars charging Fans, Advertisers, and even the Operators or others for bringing eyeballs to their Sites.

Abstract: E-Board is a pocket portable, thin, light, small digital data input device, for use primarily by PDAs, cell phones or other mobile communicating computers (MCC). It has several versions, such a one pad or multi pad, integral to or detachable from MCC or even adhered to and covering the screen of MCC. It can encompass functions such as stylus, scroll, handwriting pad, etc., freeing much needed space for a larger screen. It can act also as MCC cover. Several techniques and devices are introduced that have also uses beyond MCC.

Abstract: This invention relates to a thin electronic data input device. Some versions of the input device may be foldable, and some versions are capable of being rolled up. Still other versions are capable of being disintegrated into smaller sub-parts. Other versions have one or more of these properties. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, a thin electronic data input device for generating electrical signals for transmission to an electronic device, such as a computer, in response to an operator's finger strokes is provided. The data input device comprises a thin circuit board made of a material on which thin electronic circuitry can be affixed. The electronic circuitry includes at least one node, electrically coupled to the circuit board, so that when touched by a finger, a unique signal associated with that node is transmitted to the electronic device.

Abstract: Synthetic hair may be implanted using bundles of synthetic fibres joined at their lower end so that they will be firmly anchored in the scalp and not easily pulled out. The implants may be inserted by a tool which comprises a short sharp hollow tube and a manipulating handle. The tip of the tube may be inserted into the scalp to provide a conduit into which the synthetic fibres are sewn into the scalp.The synthetic fibres are implanted by having curved needles at one end and a juncture of several fibres at the other end. The needles are inserted through the tube and into the scalp and out through the outer surface at various locations like normal hair, but because they are joined and anchored within the scalp, will not be easily removed. Alternatively, the skin can be surgically lifted and the fibre inserted through the skin from underneath.
