  • Publication number: 20120240080
    Abstract: A system and a method of segmenting information, is provided where a user may select a topic from a displayed topic list, including a question indicative of the topic and a response which then displays correlated content to the response. Another option is for the user to select a pre-generated compounded statement, where upon selecting, the correlated content is displayed. The correlated content is provided a priority and specific sequence, where the user may select a filter from a plurality of filters and there are options to remove and/or switch responses. An opposite correlated content is also provided, that is opposite responses to the correlated content and a public content is that is indicative of what is popular among the public. The user is provided with a tracking overlay comprising a rating panel, including rating factors, and a selecting panel, including commands for sorting the correlated content.

  • Publication number: 20090119013
    Abstract: A system for managing an end-user's request for information and entertainment. This information can be retrieved using a kiosk with a computer, using software over the Internet with a hardwired computer-like device, or using software with a wireless handheld device. Applications include any areas including commercial, industrial, and government where groups of people congregate such as trade shows, retail stores, restaurants, offices, manufacturing plants, and governmental buildings. The system provides both audio and text information and entertainment from a plurality of sources. These sources include information and entertainment from the local environment or ‘on-site’ information, and from a remote environment. These locations can also retrieve information from the end-user. This information can be product feedback, customer service opinions, product information requests, or the like.

  • Patent number: 6245722
    Abstract: A high performance lubricant that includes a silicone wax that has been dissolved in solvent, emulsified or suspended in an inert carrier is described. In addition, a method is discussed of lubricating the solid surfaces of moving parts with a relatively water resistant, dry lubricant. The lubricant repels water and sheds dirt. Thus, this lubricant is particularly useful for lubricating high performance products that are used in a dirty environment.
