Abstract: A user device may provide a graphical user interface which presents content navigation objects, where each content navigation object may be associated with a content item and is presented within a portion of the graphical user interface. The user device may detect an action that corresponds to a content navigation object, and determine whether the detected action is a command to display content options that may be contextually related to the content item associated with the content navigation object. The user device may display the content options by altering the appearance of the content navigation object, receive an action selecting the content option from the displayed content options, and conceal the content options after the action for selecting the content option has been received.

Abstract: A system includes a gateway and a verification server. The gateway is configured to receive a first message from a client over a network; send a request to a verification server to generate a first credential based on the first message; and route the first message toward a remote device. The verification server is configured to receive the request from the gateway; generate the first credential in response to the request; store the first credential; receive a second message from the remote device, the message requesting the verification server to validate a second credential; determine whether the second credential is valid based on the first credential; and send a notification to the remote device indicating whether the second credential is valid.

Abstract: A background noise inserter server is described that includes a communication interface for communicating with a network, memory for storing background audio, and a processor coupled to the communication interface and the memory. The processor controls the server to connect to a phone call session in response to a session initiation protocol (SIP) invite from a calling device indicating that the calling device is requesting the background audio in the phone call session with a called device. The processor also controls the server to insert the background audio into the phone call session so that the inserted background audio is mixed with audio from the phone call session transmitted to both the calling device and the called device.

Abstract: A note data message is associated with a first user equipment (UE) device and is sent to a second UE device when the second UE device communicates with the first UE device. The note data message is received and stored in a network server. A request is received from the second UE device to establish a communication session with the first UE device. If the first UE device has authorized the sending of the message to the second device, the note data message is sent to the second UE device independent of any communication session established between the first and second UE devices.

Abstract: A system is described that contains a device including a memory with a management application installed thereon. The management application contains a manager that generates a plurality of user accounts and associates at least one communication service as a messaging account with each user account, and an interface module that generates a user interface that presents the plurality of user accounts and that modifies the user interface based on the identification of the selected user account to present a selected account display.
