Abstract: Disclosed are examples of apparatus, methods, and computer readable storage media for informing one or more users of social network data such as group data when the data is relevant to the user(s). For example, when one or more keywords are identified as being associated with both a group of an online social network and the user, a communication with information identifying the group data can be generated and provided to a display device accessible by the user. In another example, social network data is associated with an entity of the online social network, and the entity is not being followed by the user. Social network data identified as related to one or more keywords can be provided to a display device in a suitable presentation accessible by the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for configuring a UI display layout for displaying record fields in a multi-tenant on-demand database service. A data record is initially displayed on a first portion of a user interface display, and an identification of a set of one or more fields of the data record is received, e.g., from a user. A selection of a display configuration for the set of identified fields is also received, e.g., from a user. The display configuration may include one or more columns, each column having one or more rows, wherein the display configuration identifies, for each of the set of fields, in which column and row the field is to be displayed. Data for the set of fields based on the selected display configuration is then displayed on a second portion of the user interface display which may include a collapsible display panel.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for communicating interactive forms and reports in messaging applications. The apparatus for communicating interactive forms and reports in messaging applications is provided with a plurality of modules configured to functionally execute the necessary steps of selecting a markup language instruction, copying the markup language instruction and post the markup language instruction into a clipboard as a markup language object, pasting the markup language object into a data entry field associated with a messaging application, and injecting the markup language object into a message transmission to a second messaging application. These modules in the described embodiments include a selection module, a copy module, a paste module, and an injection module.

Abstract: A method for preventing a browser timeout resulting from multiple requests sent from a client to a server is provided. In response to receiving a request from the client, an application thread is initialized on the server for submitting data to the client. The application thread is observed using a daemon observation thread. If a loading time of the application thread exceeds a timeout, the application thread is terminated. In response to terminating the application thread, an empty response is sent to the client. In response to receiving the empty response to the client, a determination is made whether to make an additional request to the server.

Abstract: Provided are techniques for state information sharing. At least one of user information and browser information is stored in a first configuration file in a first file format associated with a first browser application. A change in at least one of the user information and the browser information in the first configuration file is recognized. The changed at least one of the user information and the browser information in the first file format is converted to a second file format associated with a second browser application. A second configuration file is updated with the changed at least one of the user information and the browser information in the second file format. In response to starting the second browser application, a user and browser state is set using the user information and the browser information in the second configuration file.

Abstract: A method and system for monitoring calls being made from a cellular phone and preventing calls being made to unauthorized numbers, as defined by the owner of the cellular phone. A security challenge is issued to a cell phone user when a suspicious, previously unknown telephone number is attempted to be called. Approved/safe numbers and/or area codes are stored within the phone and/or in a subscriber's account accessible and updated via the Internet. If the user is unable to provide the correct security code in response to the challenge, the user is prevented from making the call to the particular number.

Abstract: An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for start-up authentication. A prompt module prompts for a hardware password and authentication data on a single display screen. The authentication data comprises a user password. The user password is distinct from the hardware password. A store module stores the authentication data in a target storage space. In addition, the store module stores a pointer to the target storage space in a system register. A retrieve module retrieves the authentication data from the target storage space using the pointer. An authentication module automatically authenticates a user with the authentication data.
