Abstract: Network node devices that may be embedded into luxury goods are described. These devices may allow luxury goods to offer access to a social networking system that is based upon ownership of luxury goods, and may also be used to verify the authenticity of the luxury goods. The devices may include an interface so that the device may communicate with other network node devices, including other products or a smartphone or other device, and a memory that stores a unique identifier of the brand or of the luxury good itself.

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to systems and devices for a computer interface and digital display. The display is designed such that its physical size can be altered based upon the needs of a user. For example, the display may be able to fold or roll up when it is not needed, to allow the device to be more portable, while unfolding or unrolling when additional display area is desired.

Abstract: A system for operating an expert-informed information acquisition engine utilizing an adaptive torrent-based heterogeneous network solution includes a memory storing computer-executable instructions; at least one processor configured to access the at least one memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to: receive user-defined tags associated with a first user; access interaction data associated with one or more second users and the first user; receive user-defined tags associated with one or more second users; identify a lexicon based on the user-defined tags; receive a query from the first user, wherein the query; rank one or more documents based on the lexicon; and display one or more documents based on the lexicon, with already-seen results removed.

Abstract: A dual node network system and method. An emperor node associated with prime nodes and adjunct nodes. Prime nodes are dual torrent nodes associated with individual users, having nodes A and B and may be associated with adjunct dual torrent nodes. An emperor node may be an emperor node of a separate network, referred to herein as an allied network and is in contact with other prime nodes. The present invention provides an organization of torrents to peer nodes, files shared, with whom the individual files are shared, and any limits places on files shared.

Abstract: It is a search process, which combines human inputted filters, emotional ratings and tags, select criteria and selection, identified and unidentified sources, and negative filters, for a community based Intranet and Internet combined search and discovery engine, and database management system. It works though set user generated communities [families, clubs, organizations etc.] individually, or joining together to identify, rate, and trust their own Intranet information, and then the external Internet content. Through human participation content is catalogued, and prioritized according to group needs. This brings the emphasis on to human judgement for the end search results.
