Abstract: Method and system for providing an augmented photobook that includes at least one interactive feature. An image of a symbology printed on a page of a photobook is captured, and address information contained therein is decoded. A web browser of an electronic device is directed to a website identified by the address information, and additional information related to the photobook is received from a remote computing device associated with the website. The additional information related to the photobook is displayed on the electronic device. Additionally, a level of access to the website is determined for a user of the electronic device. A user request to transmit new content to the website is received it is determined whether the level of access corresponds to permission rights for the website. If the level of access corresponds to the permission rights then the new content is transmitted and aggregated at the website.

Abstract: Devices and methods provide route guidance by maintaining a plurality of user preferences, receiving a beginning location and an ending location of a trip, and receiving a trip purpose of the trip. Such devices and methods automatically generate multiple different routes between the beginning location and the ending location, automatically create a subset of less than all of the user preferences that match the trip purpose to produce purpose-specific preferences, and automatically rank the multiple different routes by ranking routes that match more of the purpose-specific preferences ahead of routes that match less of the purpose-specific preferences to produce a ranked order. Then, such devices and methods automatically output the multiple different routes in the ranked order.
