Abstract: Methods, products and systems for managing information comprise a computer-based information warehouse comprising information files provided to a user on-demand. Each information file is assigned a unique identification (ID) code. Entry of ID code into code input device results in automatic execution of corresponding information file from the information warehouse to a computer in communication with both input device and information warehouse. A function menu enables user-selection of one or more options relating to said information file. Methods, media and systems for monitoring activity relating to each file of the information warehouse.

Abstract: An index finger mounted guitar pick has first and second parallel, planar surfaces, an upper end and a lower, string-engaging end and is formed of resilient material. A mounting ring is sized and shaped to fit about an index finger of a guitarist and is attached orthogonally to one of the planar surfaces. The mounting ring is positioned at a point spaced downwardly from the upper end. The mounting ring is fixedly or rotatably attached to one of the planar surfaces and is adjustable for different sized fingers. A slot penetrates the planar surfaces and extends from a point spaced downwardly from the upper end toward the lower end. A fastener has a front element attached to the mounting ring, a bearing element located in the slot and a rear element. The fastener is fitted frictionally to the slot, providing adjustable positioning of the mounting ring on the guitar pick.

Abstract: An interactive playing/trading card system is described herein. This system includes a plurality of encoded cards, a controller, a card reader, memory and an output device. Information relating to the nature of the card is provided on each card to allow its identification by the card reader. Once this data is supplied to the controller, the corresponding portion of the memory may be accessed to be transferred to the output device to provide user interactivity.
