Abstract: Architecture that enables discovery and communications between users that have common interests (e.g., visited the same place). For example, when users arrive at a geographic location (e.g., a business) at various times, the users are registered (automatically or manually) via a location-based service. A user can register at the location so other users may discover the user by association to the same location and according to concurrent (all or a portion of overlap of time) visitation. The registration process creates visit information of a visiting user, and a history component stores the visit information and provides access to the visit information according to user access preferences. The architecture further enables searches to be performed over the visit information by users to find other users who visited the location at the same time, to find potential new friends, and also suggest other users who match the user profile preferences.

Abstract: Architecture that identifies and learns repeated user behavior (habits) related to routes of travel and points of interest. Once learned, the habits of an individual can be used to make an algorithm more efficient, and hence, the user experience of an application more effective and enjoyable. The capability to more accurately infer user behavior based on user history can be employed to operate (e.g., power down or place in components standby to conserve power) user device resources in a more efficient manner. It can be identified that a user has deviated from a routine route that has associated points of interest to a new route that has associated new points of interest. Once identified, the original set of points of interest for the routine route is then updated with new points of interest. The identification of fixed routes can be determined dynamically as well as deviation from a fixed route.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer storage media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that verify localized product versions are provided. Resources are extracted from a localized file of a product version associated with a target language type. The resources are compared with target content of the target language type. In one embodiment, the target content is stored in a localization database. Upon the comparison of the resources with the target content, it is recognized whether the resources match the target content.
