Abstract: Methods and systems for interactive user interface objects are provided. The user interface allows for users to manipulate different objects represented by icons within a user interface, such as that of an iPhone or iPad or other touch screen devices. Users may bump objects together, flick one object towards another, bump an object against the edge of a screen, flick an object towards a certain area such as a dock, or otherwise manipulate the objects. The user's actions or manipulations of objects may result in an action by the objects or may have no effect. Depending on the compatibility of objects, the objects may be neutral towards one another, may attract each other, or may repel. The objects that attract may share content or communicate with each other via a one-time interaction, or may establish links or connections with each other that enable longer term communication or broadcasts that occur upon pre-determined triggers.

Abstract: A simulator of various forms of mass transportation wherein one or more users interact with the vehicles as free-roaming, first-person avatars. This simulation will also allow a user and or multiple users to simulate various job duties associated with mass transportation. This simulation will broadcast jobs or tasks that one or many users may bid on in exchange for credits and increases in data representing skill and experience upon real-time performance evaluation and task completion. The users receive a rating which can change the user's experience within the simulation. The simulator allows the user to design the track or roadways upon which the vehicles operate. The simulator also allows the user to design the vehicle used by the user. The simulator may be used by a single user on a single machine or by multiple users in remote locations.
