Patent number: 7373329Abstract: Systems for effecting online financial transactions between individuals are disclosed. Any user may initiate a send money transaction or a request payment transaction with any other entity provided that entity has an e-mail address. For a send money transaction, the user sending money (payor) enters an amount of funds to be transferred and an e-mail address of the recipient of the funds (payee). The transfer request may include an identity confirmation through which the payor confirms the identity of the payee. The system sends an e-mail message to the payee at the address provided indicating that the amount of funds has been “received” on the payee's behalf. The payee may open an online account or identify an existing online account to complete the transaction as well as provide identity confirmation for the payor. Upon confirmation, the transfer may occur.Type: GrantFiled: December 2, 2003Date of Patent: May 13, 2008Assignee: Yahoo, Inc.Inventors: Paul Gallagher, Steve Davis, Kaycie Roberts, Robert Simon, Michael Baum, Mieko Schmandt, Peihuan Meng, Ivan Liu, Jorge Noa, Martin Hampton

Patent number: 5953524Abstract: A multimedia application development system including an authoring environment and a runtime module for executing applications developed in the authoring environment is described. The system allows creation of customized objects (e.g., custom controls), by creating a user-defined class or "UDC." Typically, a UDC is created from one or more existing classes, inheriting, at least in part, behavior and functionality of those existing classes. The system provides methods where actual binding of properties and methods to an object instance of a class is deferred until runtime. With specific regard to UDC-created objects, the behaviors of parent classes are not bound to object instances at compile time. Instead, these behaviors are "late bound" by fetching them from the parent classes at runtime, on an "as needed" basis. Further, "which" particular parent classes are actually employed for this purpose at runtime can be altered, thereby providing further flexibility to the system.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 1996Date of Patent: September 14, 1999Assignee: Sybase, Inc.Inventors: Peihuan Meng, Steven M.
