Abstract: The present invention involves a server for accommodating multiple payments in an e-commerce transaction. The server includes a processor with a communications device and software modules. The vendor software module is adapted to receive payment requirements from a vendor via the communications device, and also to receive payment parameters from an initiator. The payment parameters include an item payment amount and an identification of at least one contributor. The contributor software module is adapted to obtain payment information from at least one of the initiator and the contributors wherein the payment information is sufficient to authorize the commitment of funds to a transaction. The aggregation software module is adapted to send participation messages via the communications device to at least one contributor. The participation messages include information on the item, the item payment amount, and directions for the contributor to interact with the contributor module.

Abstract: The present invention involves an emergency contact system and method which allows emergency personnel to reach an individual's designated contacts during an emergency in which the individual is incapacitated. A server provides health care information in case of emergency. The server has a depository module for storing health care information relating to a first individual. The server also has a directory module for associating the first individual with the health care information, a token access code; and a list of proxy contacts. The server further has a communications module for providing information relating to the proxy contacts when presented with a token access code. The communications module may also provide the health care information to a proxy contact. The depository also stores documents relating to the first individual. The server also includes an interactive telephony system.

The contributor software module obtains payment information from the initiator and/or contributors sufficient to authorize the commitment of funds to a transaction. The aggregation software module sends participation messages to contributors. The participation messages include information on the item, the item payment amount, and directions for the contributor to interact with the contributor module. Further, the aggregation software module maintains a total of committed funds and initiates a payment transaction when the committed funds are sufficient to pay the vendor.

Abstract: A search of information collected from a root URL (Websites, Web pages, documents or database fields) is dynamically linked back to a directory (contact) record where information from both data sets are displayed to the end user who is performing the search. Additional information can be displayed as it relates to each contact. The dynamic linking includes importing a plurality of directory (contact) records with assigned IDs into a first table of a database and defining a group of root URLs with assigned IDs into a second table of the database. Establishing a coordinating third table of the database to link each of the directory (contact) records with root URLs, thus allowing directory (contact) records to share root URLs. Each root URL is spidered to capture target content (all Web pages within a Website, documents within a directory or content within an individual document) and links the content found to the root URL.
