Abstract: A method includes recognizing an item within a first document based on a pattern associated with the item but not the exact content of the item. The method further includes identifying a link for the item and providing a second document that includes information associated with the item when the link for the item is selected.

Abstract: Particular embodiments receive a plurality of touch events. Each touch event may be associated with at least one position on a touchscreen, and at least a portion of the plurality of touch events are substantially located along a line. Particular embodiments further determine that: (1) the touch events are approaching an edge of the touchscreen, and (2) one or more pressure measurements taken at one or more of the touch input events are less than a minimum pressure threshold. Based on the determinations, particular embodiments anticipate that the touch events will end before they reach the edge of the touchscreen, and based on the anticipating, particular embodiments terminate a series of extrapolated positions before the series of extrapolated positions reach the edge of the touchscreen.

Abstract: Particular embodiments receive multiple touch events detected by a touchscreen. Each touch event may be associated with at least one position on a touchscreen, and at least a portion of the touch events may be located along a line. Particular embodiments may determine that the touch events are approaching an edge of the touchscreen, and may determine a first extrapolated position based on the determination that the touch events are approaching the edge of the touchscreen. The first extrapolated position may anticipate that one or more future touch events will turn before reaching the edge of the touchscreen. Particular embodiments may also provide display information based on the touch events and the first extrapolated position.

Abstract: Techniques to display location-based information are described. An apparatus may comprise a screen management component and an interface component. The screen management component may be operative to display in a first screen area location-based information on a map according to geographic location, to display in a second screen area a list comprising the location-based information, and to adjust a relative size of the first screen area and the second screen area in response to a received interaction with one of the first screen area and second screen area. The interface component may be operative to receive the interaction with one of the first screen area and second screen area. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A method includes recognizing an item within a first document based on a pattern associated with the item but not the exact content of the item. The method further includes identifying a link for the item and providing a second document that includes information associated with the item when the link for the item is selected.

Abstract: Techniques for server-controlled tiling of location-based information are described. An apparatus may comprise a communication component and a tile component. The communication component may be operative to receive a location-based search request from a client application, the location-based search request comprising a geographic area, and to transmit a plurality of tiles to the client application. The tile component may be operative to determine the plurality of tiles as a set of tiles that cover the geographic area, each tile of the plurality of tiles covering a portion of the geographic area and comprising a set of locations. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a client computing device may execute software from a first portion of memory of the client computing device. The client computing device may request from a server an over-the-air (OTA) update to the software. The client computing device may receive from the server a manifest for the OTA update. The client computing device may download from the server a payload pursuant to the manifest. The client computing device may install the payload into a second portion of memory of the client computing device, and execute the software from the second portion of memory.

Abstract: A system and method may assist in accurately inserting user data into a form document. An attribute may be received from a user, where the attribute is associated with an attribute name. A document may be presented including a form field element having an identifier. User information may be received into the form field element. It may be determined whether the user information matches the attribute. If so, the identifier associated with the form field element is mapped to the attribute name and the mapping is stored. Upon subsequent display of the form document, user data associated with the mapped attributed name may be inserted into the form field element based on the mapping.
