Abstract: A chronology display is generated for use with a web presentation or other form of network presentation. The chronology display may include a plurality of intervals, with each interval representative of a period of time. In an embodiment, some of the intervals may indicate a number of content items provided on the network presentation during the time period that corresponds to each particular interval. The indication may be provided by a characteristic, such as for example, a color or shading that represents the number of content items provided on the network presentation.

Abstract: A plurality of content items are retrieved from multiple network sites. Content from each content item is programmatically analyzed in order to associate that content item with one or more categories. The one or more categories may be part of a larger set of predefined categories. A network page is assigned to one or more corresponding categories in the set of predefined categories. At least some content is provided on the network page using one or more content items that were associated with the one or more categories assigned to that network page.

Abstract: A capitalization-sensitive (“Cap-sensitive”) search is a feature that provides the ability to specify as search criteria both a term and a capitalization characteristic or signature of the term. There are conventional approaches that enable a capital-sensitive approach to be performed from within a document.

Abstract: Enabling text searching that accommodates a search criteria corresponding to a capitalization characteristic. One or more search terms are received, and a determination is made as to a capitalization characteristic of at least one search term. One or more documents are identified from a collection of documents. The identification is based at least in part on the determination of the capitalization characterization of the search term, so that the search result satisfies the criteria of the capitalization characteristic.

Abstract: A system and method for generating random numbers utilizing a shared or distributed source of entropy is disclosed. In one embodiment, the invention allows networked computers to generate and share entropy in proportion to the need for random numbers utilized to initialize the internal state of random number generators residing on the computers. A shared session key generated during communications between a first and second computer is appended to the current internal state of the random number generators residing on the computers to create a bit string. The bit string is then mixed or hashed using a one-way “hash” function such as message digest function to produce a mixed bit string. At least a portion of the mixed bit string is then used to reinitialize the internal state of the random number generators residing on the computers.
