Abstract: An approach is presented for providing automatic and manual rule setting rule setting by online service providers. A content programming platform receives a first input for defining one or more automatic rules for a plurality of landing spots in a content repository, the content programming platform will further receive a second input for defining at least one override rule for at least one of the landing spots, the at least one override rule superseding the automatic rule corresponding to the at least one landing spot. Based, at least in part, on the entries the landing spots are populated with respective content items.

Abstract: A system and method for operating a voice domain name network for use over a telephone network including the steps of a computer taking a call in which a user speaks a name. The system recognizes the spoken name. Then the system checks that the name is on a voice domain list stored in a database where the voice domain name corresponds to an Internet URL. The system creating a record registering the name as a voice domain name if the name corresponds to an Internet URL and if it is not previously registered as a voice domain name and wherein said record includes a registrant and a telephone number for the registrant. Such that future callers who call and speak the name are connected via telephone to the registrant.

Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for displaying content recommendations to a television viewer. In one aspect of the invention, when the user changes channel, the system displays contact recommendations to the user before going to the next channel. The recommendations are based on user profiles and/or aggregated multi-user content. In a further aspect, the user can decide on one of the recommendations (or answer a yes/no query) to migrate to the corresponding content.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to generating audience analytics that includes providing a database containing a plurality of user input pattern profiles representing the group of users of terminal device, in which each user of the group is associated with one of the plurality of user input pattern profiles. A clickstream algorithm, tracking algorithm, neural network, Bayes classifier algorithm, or affinity-day part algorithm can be used to generate the user input pattern profiles. A user input pattern is detected based upon use of the terminal device by the current user and the user input pattern of the current user is dynamically matched with one of the user input pattern profiles contained in the database. The current user is identified based upon dynamic matching of the user input pattern generated by the current user with one of the user input pattern profiles. The present invention processes each user input pattern profile to identify a demographic type.

Abstract: The invention includes a method and system for personalizing displays of published Web pages provided by Web content providers to meet the interests of Web users accessing the pages, based on profiles of the users. The system preferably provides to the requesting user, through a proxy server, an edited version of the HTML file for the original published Web page that is served by a host Web server. The system uses user profiles that may include demographic and psychographic data to edit the requested Web page. The content of a Web page as published by a host Web server may be coded to correlate components of the Web page with demographic and psychographic data. The user profiles may then be used to filter the content of a coded Web page for delivery to a requesting user. The system may rearrange content on a published Web page so that content determined to be of higher interest to a user is more prominently featured or more easily or quickly accessible.
