Abstract: A system receives an indication of a content feed of hierarchical content over a network. The content feed is hosted by a content provider. The system dynamically instantiates a content connection application that incorporates the content feed using a pre-defined declarative data structure engine. The system provides a user interface widget for the content connection application to allow user interaction with the hierarchical content of the first content feed.

Abstract: A user requests a plurality of content feeds. Content associated with the content feeds is periodically retrieved and converted to a print format. Contents associated with the content feeds are stored in the print format. Indications corresponding to the content feeds are provided to a network connected printer and displayed on a user interface thereof, including an indication that new content is available in the print format.

Abstract: A scan request is received. In response, a command is sent to an image scanner to scan media. A scanned image of the media is received from the image scanner according to the command.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to data-warehouse-based computational systems that provide for collection and distribution of user-created content among users of the data-warehouse-based computational systems. User-created content is initially stored in a semantic-model-based data-storage facility, for efficient and rapid access to other users, and migrates to storage according to a dimensional model within the data warehouse. The combination of a semantic-model-based data-storage facility and dimensional-model-based data-storage facility within the data warehouse provides both fast access to, and rapid update of, user-created content as well as incorporation of user-created content into the data warehouse for long-term storage and access.
