Abstract: A system for audibly conveying financial information includes at least one processor operatively coupled to a data source via a network, and configured to receive at least one user-selected musical parameter, as well as financial data from the data source associated with a financial asset. The financial data includes a variable parameter which varies over a time period. The at least one processor is further configured to determine, for a plurality of values of the variable parameter during the time period, a plurality of musical notes based on the plurality of values of the variable parameter and the user-selected musical parameter, and to generate audio data associated with the plurality of musical notes. The generated audio data is processable by a device to audibly produce the plurality of musical notes.

Abstract: Mechanisms for organizing messages across different message types. This may be accomplished by using a single integrated user interface in which messages across a variety of different message types are represented in a common way. For example, the user experience of placing a telephone call is standardized, regardless of the actual telephone technology (Cell Phone, VoIP, or POTS) used to conduct the telephone conversation. Also, addition to a general log that includes the overall list of messages, each message also has a separate, message-based log, thereby allowing for more flexible querying and organization of the messages regardless of the message type.

Abstract: A multimedia content delivery system for consumers who have acquired a product or article by chance or intent, which provides access to a digital experience. The digital experience can include static, interactive and continuously updated multimedia content, digital transactions and similar digital content. The consumer can mount the article on an interface device, which creates a link between the article and the digital experience. The digital experience can be accessed locally or downloaded from the Internet and, thereafter, displayed or played back to the consumer.
