Abstract: Methods, systems and devices for automatically connecting similar users wherein similarity is based on live audio listening information. The method comprises receiving and storing audio listening information at a server for a plurality of users and identifying the audio the user is currently listening to. The server uses the stored information to automatically generate a list of users similar to a particular user. The similarity between users can be based on audio users are currently listening to, so that the list of similar users comprises a list of users currently listening to the same audio as the particular user. The server filters the list of similar users to a specific geographic area, such as a town. The server then provides the particular user with information on the similar users which may enable the particular user to communicate with the similar users publicly or privately.

Abstract: A computer display system and method for displaying a sequence of video images in a portion of a graphic display. The video images are provided to the system along with a first set commands that define the size of the images relative to the display as well as their position for insertion into the display. A command modifier, internal to the display system modifies the first set of video image size/position commands to produce a second set of commands. These modifications are performed by the command modifier in response to signals such as from user-generated commands. The second set of video image size/position commands are then forwarded, respectively to a scaling unit and a image insertion unit. The scaling unit scales the video image signals based on the size commands contained in the second set of commands. The insertion unit inserts the scaled video image sequence into the graphics display based on the second set of commands.
