Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for identifying a recipient for an electronic post. An electronic post that was authored by an authoring user is received. The post is detected to include text that partially, but not fully, identifies a target recipient for the post. The text that partially identifies the target recipient is determined to be associated with a valid first user account for a first domain or a valid second user account for a second domain. The first user account or the second user account is selected as a selected user account for the target recipient based on the determining. The electronic post is transmitted to a different remote computing device that is associated with the selected user account.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for assisting the authoring of posts to an asymmetric social network. In one aspect, a method performed by a system of one or more data processing devices includes receiving, at the system, an identification of an electronic document that is available on the Internet, the system identifying image content in the electronic document, the system filtering the identified image content, the system triggering presentation of the filtered image content to an author of a post to an asymmetric social network, the system receiving a selection of a first image from amongst the presented image content, and the system adding the first image to a post to the asymmetric social network.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for creating conversations related to a location. One method includes receiving a topic for a real-time conversation from a user, receiving location information related to a location of the user, and creating a real-time conversation object that includes the received topic. The method also includes tagging the created real-time conversation object with the received location information, indexing, based on the received topic and the received location information, the tagged real-time conversation object with respect to other real-time conversation objects, and providing the tagged real-time conversation object in response to a search for real-time conversation objects received from another user.

Abstract: A pest barrier comprises a back plate having a top and bottom ends and a channel formed by front and rear walls with a bottom arcuate base therebetween. The pest barrier further includes an arcuate top cap extending between the top of the back plate and the front wall such that the rear wall of the channel is located between and spaced apart from the back plate and the front wall of the channel. The rear wall includes a free distal end spaced apart from the arcuate top cap back plate to provide a gap therebetween. A kit for forming a pest barrier comprises at least two pest barrier members and a connector for securing the at least two pest barrier members to each other.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for discovering conversations related to a location. One method includes receiving, at a server, location information related to a location of a user and determining a plurality of real-time conversation objects that are associated with locations within an area related to the received location of the computing device. The location associated with each of the plurality of real-time conversation objects indicates a location of a user at the time the user requested creation of the real-time conversation object. The method also includes sending, to a computing device of the user, information representing the determined real-time conversation objects.

Abstract: In general, the subject matter described in this specification can be embodied in methods, systems, and program products for verifying a venue associated with a user location. A mobile computing device determines an estimated geographic location of the mobile computing device. The mobile computing device wirelessly transmits the estimated geographic location to a server system. The mobile computing device receives from the server system an identification of a suggested venue. An interface element that indicates that the mobile computing device may be located at the suggested venue is provided on a display of the mobile computing device. User input that confirms that the user is at the suggested venue is received. In response to receiving the user input, the suggested venue is identified as a confirmed venue. A wireless communication that identifies that the user is at the confirmed venue is provided from the mobile computing device.
