Abstract: A system for casual driver ride sharing includes an interface and processor. The interface is to receive a request for a ride from a user, wherein the request includes GPS information for the user. The processor is to determine compatibility between the typical route information and the request for the ride; determine a ranked list based at least in part on the compatibility; and provide a ride offer to a driver of the one or more casual drivers based at least in part on the ranked list.

Abstract: A system for determining a dispatch includes an input interface, a processor, and an output interface. The input interface is to receive a request for a first pickup including a first pickup location and a first destination. The processor is configured to determining a driver to dispatch to the first pickup location. The output interface is to provide a first pickup indication to the driver to go to the first pickup location. The input interface is further to receive a first pickup arrival indication indicating the driver arrived at the first pickup location. The output interface is further to provide a first destination indication indicating to the driver to go to the first destination. The input interface is further to receive a request for a second pickup including a second pickup location and a second destination.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the first processors of a mobile device determine an operating condition of the mobile device. These operating conditions are based on a current velocity of the mobile device, and the current time of day. If the operating conditions satisfy an operating criteria for the mobile device, the first processors send a message to second processors of the mobile device, causing one or more of the second processors to wake up from a sleeping state to an active state.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving content from a first user at a first time, determining whether one or more second users should be notified of the received content based on an associated first priority level, and sending a first notification to these second users. The first notification includes a subset of user-facing information of the received content. The method additionally includes receiving an update to the content from the first user at a second time which is later in time than the first time, determining whether one or more second users should be notified of the received update based on an associated second priority level, and sending a second notification to these second users. The second notification includes a second subset of the user-facing information associated with the received update.
