Abstract: Text recognition techniques are described. In one or more implementations, image data is received via a network at a service provider. One or more image deblurring or curve correction techniques are applied to the image data, text is recognized from the deblurred image data using one or more optical character recognition techniques, and the recognized text is exposed for access via the network.

Abstract: Sharing data based on tagging is disclosed. Sharing includes associating a tag with a contact, identifying an object to which the tag is assigned, and sending object data associated with the object to the contact. Assigning a tag is disclosed. Assigning includes receiving an object from a contact, identifying a tag associated with the contact, and assigning the tag to the object.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine comprises a number of cylinders. The cylinders have electronically activated intake valves. Ignition coils for the cylinders are responsive to respective ignition signals such that charge accumulates in a coil for a cylinder when the ignition signal for the cylinder has a first state and then the charge causes ignition for the cylinder when the ignition signal for the cylinder changes to a second state. In response to detecting an intake valve fault in respect of a cylinder, the ignition signal for the cylinder is held in the first state for a number of cycles of the internal combustion engine, and is then switched to a second state to safely discharge the primary coil without combustion in the cylinder.
