Abstract: A system for updating parameters of financial transactions associated with financial services initiated and completed on behalf of or directly by a user through access to a data-packet-network into more than one electronic interface accessible to the user is provided. The system comprises, a main electronic interface supported by back-end software, the main interface for registering all user accounts into at least one portfolio group, the accounts accessible in detail through the main interface, at least one cobranded electronic interface supported by back-end software, the cobranded interface mirroring the accounts registered in the main electronic interface and a plurality of institution-specific electronic interfaces for providing direct account registration, reporting, and maintenance specific to accounts provided by the associated institutions.

Abstract: In a software suite for enabling viewing and manipulation of data through a single portal accessible from a data-packet-network, a software interface for enabling proxy transfer of funds from one financial account to another is provided. The software interface comprises, an interactive main window for configuring transfer funds orders, viewing pending transfers, viewing transaction history, and viewing active account balances related to registered financial accounts, an interactive selection window accessible through the main interface, the selection window for enabling selection of individual accounts for grouping into a list of activated accounts and an automated confirmation window enabling confirmation of data parameters of a requested funds transfer. A user operating the main interface may initiate funds transfer orders to be performed between accounts at requested times by proxy in a fashion transparent at the time of execution to the requesting user.

Abstract: A system for inferring intent of visitors to a Website has a visitor-tracking application executing from a digital medium coupled to a server hosting the Website, the server connected to a repository adapted to store data about visitor behavior, and an inference engine for processing the data to infer the intent of visitors. Visitor behavior relative to links is tracked, and intent of a visitor is inferred from one or both, or a combination of analysis of the behavior and deducing meaning for anchor text of links selected.

Abstract: A software application for emulating a user in an interactive chat session hosted on a data-packet-network is provided. The software application comprises, a navigation interface for accepting input from a navigation system, a dialog interface for inputting dialog into the chat session, a session recorder for recording a chat session, a timer for regulating intervals of input of dialog entered into the chat session and a function disabler for disabling undesired communication events sourced from the chat session. The software application is characterized in that a user pre-configures a list of queries for input into an impending chat session, sending the queries along with session-associated parameters in the form of a request for navigation to and proxy interaction in a session on behalf of the user.

Abstract: An Internet portal system for accomplishing a multi-component task involving interaction with one or more Internet Web sites includes an Internet-connected server having access to client-related data, an internet-capable client station usable by a client, and software executing on the server for managing individual component tasks in execution of the multi-component task. The software, in response to initiation of a multi-component task specified by the client, defines the component tasks, identifies Internet Web sources for completion of the tasks, manages interaction with the identified Web sites gathering results of the interactions, integrates the gathered results, and communicates final results to the client at the client station. Tasks may be such as trip planning and may include payment for services rendered at Web sites, such as airline reservations, car rentals and the like.
