Abstract: Internet or networked communication message items are selectively synchronized and tracked. An interactive communication application presents a message entry interface enabling a user to select a discrete question for tracking, creating tracking thread. The message is presented by visually distinguishing the tracked question from a remainder of message items, and the thread is updated in response to a reply message comprising a linked answer. A secondary tracking display interface presents thread pluralities and enables a user to select and resend an unanswered question or an unacknowledged answer. An answer may be automatically or explicitly linked to a question. Selecting or linking a question or answer may be effected through a cursor routine or special text string inputs, and the special text string inputs may be user defined.

Abstract: Verifiable authentication credentials are provided to foreign systems without passing an id and password to the protected resource. A user wishing to access a secure remote site is prompted for credentials, the credentials are authenticated locally and a digitally signed token is created. The token is redirected to the secure remote site by the user's browser using HTTP redirection. The digital signature is verified by the secure remote site preferably by a digital signature web service. The remote site establishes communications with the user if the digital signature is valid.

Abstract: An exemplary embodiment is a system, method and storage medium for back ordering out of stock products. The system includes a host system for receiving an order for a product from a user, determining whether inventory for said product satisfies said order, notifying said user if said inventory for said product does not satisfy said order, receiving a back order request from said user to back order said product if said inventory for said product does not satisfy said order, determining an amount of said product for meeting said back order request, acquiring said amount and updating said inventory, notifying said user that said back order request has been satisfied and receiving a delivery request from said user to deliver said product. A network is coupled to the host system, and a database is coupled to the host system for storing data relating to the back ordering out of stock products.
