Abstract: A system for facilitating paperless gifting and purchasing may include a server having computer implemented instructions stored thereon for performing the operations of receiving a first image, analyzing the first image for suitability as an identifier for a transaction, generating and issuing a validation code, receiving a transaction packet, and storing the transaction packet in association with the first image on the server. The instructions may separately or additionally include receiving a first image and transaction information relating to an attempted purchase, searching the server by comparing the first image to a plurality of images stored on the server, retrieving a transaction packet associated with a matching image, the matching image being identified amongst the plurality of images when the first image matches one of the plurality of images, comparing the transaction information to information in the transaction packet, and selectively approving the purchase based on the comparison.

Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating the comprehension and awareness of electronic content dynamically changing over time through the movement of tags across defined intervals are herein disclosed. The systems and methods include a fetching engine that requests the content using a web service; a chronological tag assembler that selects the documents from the time-stamped document repository for the defined intervals, and creates information associated with tags within the documents in tag tables; and a tag cloud canvas that accepts the tag table information from the chronological tag assembler, determines the placement of the tags in the tag cloud canvas using the tag table information, and renders animation of the tags in the tag cloud canvas to a display device.
