Abstract: A user profile for a user of a social networking system may include experiences, such as work, educational, travel, and interests. The social networking system provides a profile page for a user's user profile that allows users to compliment the user on the experience. If a user wants to compliment another user on an experience not present on that user's user profile, the user can add the experience along with the compliment. Complimenting users on their experiences allows a reputation ranking to be created based on compliments received in a particular domain, which are searchable by user of the social networking system. The compliments may be used by the social networking system to build a domain-based reputation ranking of users of a social networking system.

Abstract: A number of different tags are input in a fax cover sheet that tell an OCR system not only the identity of the supplier, but also to which client the document should be routed. The OCR system identifies a number of these tags and compares them to stored supplier data to validate to which supplier the document belongs. If the system cannot validate the document, it is routed to a GUI for manual sorting. If there is no coversheet, the system relies upon the OCR system to locate keywords on the document and caller ID information to suggest a correct supplier. The OCR system also clips a separate, horizontal slice of the document (‘snippet’) that corresponds to the display of any line item and places it in a data base for future reference and reporting. The application collects and associates all corresponding snippets to their originating line items.

The lens has ending edges and is positioned over the heat sink and LED. The body has an inner wall and an outer wall. The body also has at least two pairs of heat sink mounting channels formed in the inner wall. A first pair of heat sink mounting channels is configured for slidably receiving the edges of the heat sink to provide a first orientation of the corresponding LEDs. A second pair of heat sink mounting channels is configured for slidably receiving the edges of the heat sink to provide a second orientation of the corresponding LEDs, with the first orientation being different than the second orientation.

Abstract: A user profile for a user of a social networking system may include experiences, such as work, educational, travel, and interests. The social networking system provides a profile page for a user's user profile that allows the user to tag other users as being involved in or otherwise associated with the user's experiences. Once another user is tagged in an experience, a corresponding tag is added to the tagged user's user profile, and that experience is added as well if not already included in the profile. Tagging users in experiences allows a viewer to see connections between experiences of users of the social networking system and promotes more detailed user profiles that contain experiences.

Abstract: In particular embodiments, a computing device provides for presentation to a user a first user interface associated with a first application. The first user interface includes one or more interactive elements arranged along an edge of the first user interface.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes displaying one of a number of graphical user interfaces (GUIs) of one or more applications as a card on top of a card stack. One or more of the cards in the card stack corresponds to a GUI of a home screen of the computing device. Each of one or more of the cards in the card stack corresponds to one of the GUIs of an application. The application controls presentation of their GUIs as cards in the card stack. The method also includes receiving user input to display another one of the GUIs as the card on top of the card stack; and, in response to the user input, displaying the other one of the GUIs as the card on top of the card stack.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a computing device of a first user, an indication of a message to the first user from a second user. The computing device provides for persistent display to the first user an interactive element indicating that the first user has a message from the second user. The interactive element is configured to function and to be displayed independent of and without altering the activity of an application already open on the computing device that the first user is interacting with. The interactive element is further configured to continue to be displayed until the computing device receives first user input selecting the interactive element or second user input dismissing the interactive element.

Abstract: The invention provides a display interface in a social networking system that enables the presentation of information related to a user in a timeline or map view. The system accesses information about a user of a social networking system, including both data about the user and social network activities related to the user. The system then selects one or more of these pieces of data and/or activities from a certain time period and gathers them into timeline units based on their relatedness and their relevance to users. These timeline units are ranked by relevance to the user, and are used to generate a timeline or map view for the user containing visual representations of the timeline units organized by location or time. The timeline or map view is then provided to other users of the social networking system that wish to view information about the user.
