Publication number: 20110022964Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes recording a sequence of online activities of a first user. The online activities include online consumption of online content by the first user. The method includes constructing a path based on the sequence of online activities of the first user. The path includes a sequence of online activity points that each correspond to one of the online activities in the sequence of online activities of the first user, and the path enables a second user to experience personally for themselves at least an approximation of the sequence of online activities of the first user. The method includes communicating the path for traversal of a portion of the path by the second user.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2009Publication date: January 27, 2011Applicant: Cisco Technology, Inc.Inventors: John A.

Publication number: 20100252229Abstract: A geothermal energy system with reverse thermodynamic flow scheme that employs a pump or a compressor in series with a ground heat rejection or a ground heat absorber. The pumped geothermal energy system evaporates and condenses the working fluid at substantially the same pressure in the ground loop. The working fluid could be carbon dioxide, Freon, water or any other suitable refrigerant. The compressive geothermal system condenses the working from a vapor to a liquid above, below, and substantially equal to critical pressure using carbon dioxide as the working fluid.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 1, 2010Publication date: October 7, 2010Inventors: Lalit Chordia, John C.

Publication number: 20020107718Abstract: A vendor hosts a search interface and method for managing multiple networked vendors accepts a search query and performs a meta-search for matching content. The search results are indexed and displayed. When the consumer makes a preferred selection, the preference is tracked and the consumer is redirected to the URL for the selected content, regardless of whether the content is provide by the host vendor, thereby maintaining consumer loyalty despite their selection from a competing vendor. Specifically, the consumers search request is formatted into a specific format and posted to an array of search engines. The search results are parsed and information is extracted, indexed and displayed as a custom HTML formatted list, A sub-selection of information is identified for obtaining real-time market preferences.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2001Publication date: August 8, 2002Inventors: Mark N.
