Abstract: A method for sharing data based on user ranking is described. In one embodiment, the method includes determining a location of a computing device, identifying a request to share data from the computing device with one or more other computing devices, and ranking potential recipients of the data from the computing device based on at least one of location data, network communication data, and contact information.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for facilitating access to shared resources within computer clusters may include identifying a quick response code captured by at least one computing system. The method may also include identifying information encoded in the quick response code captured by the computing system. The method may further include determining that the information encoded in the quick response code contains an activation key that facilitates activation of a software application. The method may additionally include applying, in response to this determination, the activation key to the software application in order to activate the software application without requiring a user of the software application to manually enter the activation key. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for facilitating access to shared resources within computer clusters may include (1) identifying a quick response code captured by at least one computing system, (2) identifying information encoded in the quick response code captured by the computing system, (3) determining that the information encoded in the quick response code contains an activation key that facilitates activation of a software application, then (4) applying, in response to this determination, the activation key to the software application in order to activate the software application without requiring a user of the software application to manually enter the activation key.

Abstract: User data is securely transferred from a client device to a mobile device. Data transfer activities at the client are monitored to detect a request to transfer data via a displayed code (e.g., QR code). The data being transfer are verified as being legitimate (e.g., not compromised by malware or otherwise malicious) before the transfer. Responsive to verifying that the transfer data are legitimate, a code encoding the transfer data is displayed on a display device of the client. A user of the mobile device captures the code using a digital camera or other data scanning device and decodes the code to obtain the transfer data. The mobile device may then perform an action using the transfer data, such as connecting to a website or composing an email to an address included in the transfer data.
