Abstract: A video segment can be shared over a computer network by first receiving the video segment at a receiving computer on the network. The receiving computer assures that the video segment is in a streaming video format, and creates at least one identification tag for the video segment. The receiving computer also stores the video segment, and communicates the identification tag to another computer on the network. Upon subsequent receipt of that identification tag, the receiving computer streams the video segment to a destination computer on the network.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a wireless payment platform that may offer a payment, negotiation and or barter mechanism for users with a mobile device. The wireless payment platform may utilize the convenience and adaptability of the mobile device of the users. Such a payment, barter and negotiation mechanism may offer more security to transactions by adding a transaction confirmation facility using conventional communications technologies, such as the Short Message Service or SMS, Interactive Voice Response (IVR) technology, and the like. Financial transactions may be conducted on a person-to-person basis where each user may be identified by a unique identifier such as a telephone number, caller ID, and the like. The wireless payment platform may also include a negotiating and barter module capable of allowing users to exchange offers of settlement until one offer is accepted.

Abstract: In embodiments of the present invention improved methods and systems are described for transmitting and accessing video data. The methods and systems may include capturing and streaming live video data from any point at any time in real time. The capturing and streaming of the video data may be done remotely. The video data may be transmitted wirelessly to any location in real-time. Transmitting the video data wirelessly may include uploading the video data, wirelessly streaming the video data or transmitting the video data using some other type of method. The transmitted video data may be accessed by one or more users of one or more electronic devices.

Abstract: A user can create a video segment or employ an existing video segment, and then share it over a computer network. The user provides an indication that one or more particular video segments are to be shared over the network. The video segment(s) is/are then automatically assessed and determined to be compatible with streaming video, or not. If the video segment(s) is/are not compatible with streaming video, it/they are converted to a compatible format automatically. An identifier for the video segment is automatically created and the segment and the identifier are automatically uploaded to a host computer over the network such as the Internet. The video segment and the identifier (optionally with other identifying material such as an identity of the sender, an access authorization for the video, a number of accesses permitted, and a duration for the availability of the video) can be stored at the direction of the host computer.
