Abstract: One embodiment provides a system and method for matching including a user interface digital collage for multimedia sharing built using themes paired with theme-based search functionality. This system and method can be used for searching, introducing, matching and exploring people (i.e. for dating, friendship, networking, project collaboration or employment), companies (i.e., for job placement), places (i.e., real estate rentals or sales) or ideas, where the themes are attributes of the person, company, place or idea. Another embodiment integrates this system and method with events and gatherings (e.g., parties, job fairs or open houses for sales or rentals of real estate), enabling connection and exploration of users' digital collages based on which users are attending or having particular gathering or events. In some embodiments the event can be real including for example, concerts, sporting events, theater, or virtual including, for example, online meetings, presentations, or group chats.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing the reading experience of an e-book is disclosed. The system comprises an application program configured for installation to an electronic device, a plurality of markup tags to display information stored in the e-book, the system adaptable to create at least one page of the e-book dynamically and to compile the at least one page at run-time. The plurality of markup tags indicates a triggering event or for the system to unlock information stored in the e-book. The processing engine records the progress of a user through the e-book and the user's interactions with the plurality of markup tags. The system and method enable a publisher to quickly, easily, and inexpensively enhance a user's experience of an e-book. The process of adding markup tags to an existing e-book allows a publisher to add additional content and interactive features to an e-book without expensive and time consuming processes, and without reformatting the entire e-book.

Abstract: A system and method for enhancing the reading experience of an e-book is disclosed. The system comprises an application program configured for installation to an electronic device, a plurality of markup tags to indicate triggering events stored in the e-book, and a processing engine adaptable to read the plurality of markup tags. The system is adaptable to create at least one page of the e-book dynamically and to compile the at least one page at run-time. The processing engine records the progress of the user through the e-book and collects statistical information used to calculate the user's reading rate. The triggering events are timed to occur based on the reading rate such that the triggering events execute approximately at the moment the user reads tagged content. The system and method enable a publisher to quickly, easily, and inexpensively enhance a user's experience of an e-book.
