Publication number: 20140298440Abstract: A user may express an interest in a set of individuals represented in a set of individual stores (e.g., friends in a social network and colleagues in an academic directory). Such individuals may send to the individual stores messages that are associated with a location, and the user may request, from respective individual stores, a presentation of the locations. According to the techniques presented herein, the messages from the individual stores may be aggregated, and the locations associated with the aggregated messages may be presented in a map, thereby presenting to the user the locations of the messages of the individuals irrespective of from which individual store each message was received. Additionally, the map may present the messages to the user, and upon receiving form the user a reply to a message, may send the message to the individual store from which the message was received.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2014Publication date: October 2, 2014Inventors: Seung-Hae Park, Hisun Kim

Patent number: 8332752Abstract: Techniques to dynamically modify themes based on messaging. An apparatus may comprise a processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor. The memory may store a theme manager component and a user interface component. The theme manager component, when executed by the processor, may be operative to receive a message from a message author and select a theme based on message content of the message. The user interface component, when executed by the processor, may be operative to dynamically display a user interface view with the selected theme. In this manner, a theme associated with a user may be dynamically and automatically modified based on personalized information about a user. Other embodiments are described and claimed.Type: GrantFiled: June 18, 2010Date of Patent: December 11, 2012Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Seung-Hae Park, Colin Anthony, Jose Miranda-Steiner

Publication number: 20120265823Abstract: An on demand location sharing technique protects the location of a client device until the user of the client device elects to share the location. The location of the user device is not broadcasted to other user devices. In an on demand request for the location or from initiation from the user, the location of the user device is shared with other users. In an embodiment, the on demand location sharing technique may be used in a messaging service application used in wireless devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 15, 2011Publication date: October 18, 2012Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Siddhartha Parmar, Seung-Hae Park

Publication number: 20120260188Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for identifying potential recipients for a communication (e.g., email, instant message, content sharing platform, etc.) a user is presently preparing based at least in part upon a user's communication history. That is, information about the user's interactions with past recipients of his/her communications are compared with information known about the present communication and potential recipients of the present communication are identified based upon this comparison. Moreover, in one embodiment, based upon the past interactions of the user with others, one or more communication groups can be identified and presented to the user. In this way, a user may select a communication group and recipients included in the communication group can be added as recipients for the communication the user is presently preparing without the user having to manually create such groups, for example.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2011Publication date: October 11, 2012Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Seung-Hae Park, Suraj Samaranayake, Arcadiy Gregory Kantor, Sarah Filman, Omar H.

Publication number: 20110283185Abstract: Adaptable layouts for social feeds are described. In embodiments, shared content is received as a social network action initiated at a user device by a social network user. An activity is generated based on the social network action to collect metadata associated with the shared content. The shared content and the metadata is then mapped to layout templates that are each generated for different display layout formats associated with different types of client devices. Additionally, the shared content and the metadata is mapped to additional layout templates that are each generated for different social network form factors.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 14, 2010Publication date: November 17, 2011Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Oludare V. Obasanjo, Seung-Hae Park, Benjamin C. Walters, Jared A. Russell

Publication number: 20110282893Abstract: The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method for decreasing duplicate entries and loops in an activity record such as on a user's page on a social networking site. An exemplary method comprises analyzing a new entry from a user to determine an originating service and a type of activity and extracting an identifying portion of the new entry. The identifying portion is compared to a list of prior entries from the user, and an exclusion action is performed, if the new entry matches one in the list of prior entries. The exclusion action may be to hide the new entry, to delete the new entry, or to collapse the new entry into a matching prior entry.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2010Publication date: November 17, 2011Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Robert M.

Publication number: 20110270931Abstract: News feed techniques are described. In implementations, content is parsed from one or more emails that are addressed to a user. The parsed content from the email is exposed, automatically and without user intervention, for output in a news feed of the user.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 28, 2010Publication date: November 3, 2011Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: David J. Cheng, Ken H. Chin, Oludare V. Obasanjo, Douglas R. Pearce, Seung-Hae Park, Jennie P. Telehowski, Mohammed Arshad Hussain

Publication number: 20110225170Abstract: A social networking activity reporting system (“SNARS”) and techniques are used for notifying a user of a client-side electronic device about updates (“activity items,” or “AIs”) from the user's social network. A relevance formula, which includes at least one time-dependent portion and at least one time-independent portion, is used to calculate a relevance score for an AI. For each AI, the time-dependent portion includes at least one factor based on a dynamic relationship between the user and the AI (for example, the relationship between the user or others in the user's social network and the publisher; or the amount of interaction the user or others in the user's social network have had with the item or subject). The AIs are presented in ascending or descending order based on the relevance scores. The relevance formula may be updated and re-applied to the same or a different set of activity items.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 11, 2010Publication date: September 15, 2011Applicant: MICROSOFT CORPORATIONInventors: Oludare Obasanjo, Alexander S. Ford, Seung-Hae Park

Patent number: 7991734Abstract: Techniques for remote redirection are discussed. Redirection may be used to mimic a local user experience on a remote system. Redirection may include redirecting a pointer file, such as a shortcut, to account for remote access to a source file designated in the pointer file. The pointer file may be remapped so that the pointer file's file path accounts for a path from the remote access to the source file. Operating system (OS) information may be forwarded to the accessing system so that the redirected pointer file may be presented in accordance with the remote system's (OS). Redirection may be used to present a directory remotely in accordance with operating system running on the system being accessed.Type: GrantFiled: March 7, 2008Date of Patent: August 2, 2011Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Seung-Hae Park, Rachel Popkin, Heather Ferguson

Publication number: 20100251085Abstract: Techniques for navigating content and one or more subfolders within a folder are described. In an implementation, an instance of content is situated in a folder. The folder also includes one or more subfolders that may each have one or more instances of content situated within them. When the instance of content is accessed, an iterator control may be provided that is scrollable to present one or more representations (e.g., icons) of content that is situated in the folder and one or more representations of subfolders that are situated in the folder. One or more of the representations of subfolders are selectable to navigate to a subfolder page.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 25, 2009Publication date: September 30, 2010Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: David B. Zearing, Seung-Hae Park
