  • Patent number: 8700072
    Abstract: Message content is scaled to support rich messaging. Devices and associated messaging systems can support various levels of content richness or fidelity. Message content scaling is employed to ensure sharing of content in as rich a manner as possible given limitations associated with various messaging systems, among other things. Messages can be scaled down or degraded, for instance where communicating devices do not support high fidelity content being transmitted. Alternatively, messages can be scaled up or enriched in cases, where low fidelity content is transmitted to a device supporting richer content, for example.

  • Publication number: 20140025663
    Abstract: Multi-media content for inclusion into an SMS (Short Message Service), MMS (Multi-media Message Service), IM (Instant Message) or other message type can be searched, pre-searches, fetched and pre-fetched based upon predictive- and rules-based searching techniques. A system can predict or infer an in-process message, for example, based upon a portion of the inputted text message. Thereafter, in real- or near real-time, content related to the topic of conversation can be retrieved from a local store, remote stores (e.g., servers) or cloud-based sources. The retrieved content can be incorporated into the SMS, MMS, or IM message as appropriate or desired thereby enhancing the messaging experience.

  • Patent number: 8615262
    Abstract: A method is provided to process data in a wireless data exchange. The method includes exchanging data between two or more wireless devices in real time and opening a thread of communications between the wireless devices, where the thread includes one or more data exchanges between the wireless devices. When the real time messaging exchange has been established, the method identifies all or portions of the thread as potential data to store. As such data is identified, the method selectively caches the identified portions of the thread for future data retrieval.

  • Patent number: 8594681
    Abstract: Intelligent routing of communication(s) is provided to international number(s) in a messaging service. To route a communication that includes an international number, format of the communication is established. A text-only communication is delivered through a messaging service transport protocol (MSTP) suitable for text. A media-based communication intended for a plurality of recipients, e.g., a group message, is ungrouped, the international number is identified, and a new message is generated for a group of recipients that excludes a recipient associated with the international number. The new message is delivered through a MSTP suitable for media, whereas an exception handling procedure is conducted for the international number. In addition, to route the communication that includes an international number, network interoperability of predetermined MSTP can be assessed. The communication is delivered through the predetermined MSTP if it is interoperable.

  • Publication number: 20100162133
    Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling people to more efficiently capture, process, and communicate ideas are presented herein. A display component can present multimedia content communicated via a wireless communications device as a sequential list of dialog balloons justified towards a left or right side of a display. Each dialog balloon can correspond to a message of a conversation between a user of the wireless communications device and at least one other person. A multimedia component can enable the user to include text and at least one of a picture, a video, a map, an emoticon, or audio within a dialog balloon corresponding to a message communicated by the user. A message communicated by the user can be justified towards the right side of the display, and a message communicated by the at least one other person can be justified towards the left side of the display.
