Abstract: A system and method for generating a column-oriented data structure repository for columns of single data types. The method includes: receiving instructions to generate a new column of a single data type for a first data structure, wherein the first data structure is a column oriented data structure; and storing, based on the instructions, the new column within the column-oriented data structure repository, wherein the column-oriented data structure repository is accessible to at least a second user account.

Abstract: A system and method for managing permissions of users for a column-oriented data structure, including: generating a column oriented data structure in response to receiving a request to generate the data structure from a first user device associated with a first user account, wherein the data structure comprises a plurality of columns, wherein each column is of single data type and is assigned metadata associated with the single data type; associating the first user account with a first set of permissions associated with the generated data structure; and, associating a second user account with a second set of permissions, wherein the first set of permissions comprises at least one additional permission with respect to the second set of permissions.

Abstract: A system and method for generating advertisements based on matching user metadata, including: associating a user generated content (UGC) with creator metadata and content metadata, wherein at least a portion of the UGC is generated by a first user associated with the creator metadata, wherein the creator metadata is based on information received from a user device of the creator and content metadata is based on the UGC; generating an advertisement based on the creator metadata and the content metadata; accessing user metadata associated with a second user; generating a match score between the user metadata and the creator metadata; matching between the user metadata and the creator metadata when the match score exceeds a predetermined threshold; and causing the generated advertisement to be displayed on a matching second user device associated with the second user.

Abstract: A system and method for generating tagged column-oriented data structures, including: generating a column-oriented data structure that comprises a plurality of columns, wherein each column comprises a plurality of cells that are associated with a single data type, wherein at least one of the plurality of columns is a tag type column; and inserting at least one tag into a first cell of the tag type column, where the first cell further associated with a first row of cells.

Abstract: A system and method for utilizing a server to synchronize launchers between a smartphone and a browser running on a personal computer of a user. When the user installs an application on his smartphone, the application's icon also appears automatically on a toolbar of the browser. The toolbar visually resembles the screen of the smartphone, and opening the icon of the toolbar launches, on the personal computer, a program that is identical or equivalent to the application installed on the smartphone.

Abstract: A system and method for utilizing a server to synchronize launchers among multiple computing devices of a user. When a user installs an application on a first computing device, the launcher(s) of at least one of his or her other computing devices are automatically updated. In at least two of the user's computing devices, the installation includes or is followed by downloading different platform versions of program code to execute on the computing devices' processors.
