Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for implementing a location-based records access system. An example of the method includes providing, in a browser sandbox environment executing on a processor, a client interface for interacting with a records server, receiving an indication of an occurrence of an event within the client interface, the indication comprising electronic data sufficient to identify a particular protocol handler application, executing the particular protocol handler application outside of the browser sandbox environment, wherein executing the particular protocol handler application results in execution of a listener, performing a call, by the client interface, to the listener to request a device identifier from the listener, receiving, by the client interface, the device identifier from the listener; and transmitting the device identifier to the records server.

Abstract: An apparatus for dispersing content may include a processor. The processor may be configured to receive a request associated with a content item and generate a hashed identifier based at least in part on the request associated with the content item. The processor may further be configured to generate a respective container within a hierarchy of one or more containers based at least in part on the hashed identifier and store the content item in one of the one or more containers based at least in part on the hashed identifier. Associated methods and computer program products may also be provided.

Abstract: The present invention provides a system and method for providing for future rate changes in a billing system. In architecture, the system includes an identifier that identifies that a future rate plan is to be changed, and a selector that enables a user to select the future rate plan desired. A processor implements the future rate change. The present invention can also be viewed as a method for providing for future rate changes in a billing system. The method operates by (1) identifying that a future rate plan is to be changed; (2) selecting the future rate plan desired; and (3) implementing the future rate change.
