Abstract: Adding electronic content by a user within the prior art requires the user formats every item or uses a template that predetermines the position and type of content added. However, it would be beneficial to provide users with templates which provide rules which are applied to the content as it is added based upon aspects of the template and/or data associated with the content. It would be beneficial if such templates automatically associated format elements, icons, other display elements, sourced additional content etc. based upon aspects such as the region of the template the content is added or data associated with the content being added. Further, where rendering is based upon data associated with the content if the user modifies the rendered content then these changes should be beneficially reflected in the data associated with the content such that a subsequent rendering reflects the user adjustments, etc.

Abstract: Mind maps are diagrams used to visually organize information across a wide range of applications. If, a user is not within the mind mapping software application and has an idea or sees an item of content, e.g. an image, a webpage, a website, social media, etc., then they must remember it, jot it down, or generate an electronic message to themselves within another software application. Accordingly, the invention provides users with the means to capture the idea or item of electronic content within a software application or web browser plug-in, for example, such that the idea of item of electronic content is automatically rendered either within the mind mapping software application generally or upon their opening a specific a mind map. This capturing of content can be solely for the user themselves or they can provide to collaborators as well receive content from collaborators for inclusion within their mind maps.

Abstract: A heat exchange apparatus for adjusting the temperature of fluids is provided. The apparatus includes a container for holding therein heat exchange fluid and having an inlet and an outlet; at least one heat exchange member disposed inside the container and having a first wall portion defining a first inner face and a second wall portion defining a second inner face, the first inner face being sealingly coupled to the second inner face defining thereby a fluid path therebetween extending between a first port being in fluid communication with the inlet and a second port being in fluid communication with the outlet, such that liquid introduced into the inlet flows through the fluid path towards the outlet exchanging thereby heat with the heat exchange fluid.

Abstract: A consumer-interaction kiosk features one or more displays (which can comprise touchscreen displays if desired) and a control circuit that operably couples to that display (or displays). Such a kiosk can be located, for example, proximal to or within a retail venue (such as, but not limited to, a grocery store or grocery department of a department or discount store). The content displayed by the kiosk can vary with the needs of the application setting but can include, for example, consumer-attraction content, information-gathering facilitation content, delivered-information content, entertainment content, and so forth. Such a kiosk can also be configured, if desired, to vend for-sale or free consumables (such as free product samples).

Abstract: A user interface and related methods enable a customer to manage multiple products and/or multiple providers for multiple locations via a single account statement. A graphical user interface consistent with the present invention presents the account statement as a “dashboard” view of a customer's account activities. The dashboard view presents account information across multiple products and/or multiple providers. The present invention also provides a simple way for a customer to navigate from this high level of detail into more specific account information for a given product and/or provider.
