Abstract: Systems and methods can include collecting addressability information about users accessing a service provider's IP-based network communication services, collecting information sufficient to identify when the user is accessing the service provider's IP-based network communication services, collecting data from value-added services usage by the user and using the collected data to associate the user with certain marketing content. The systems and methods can further include sending the marketing content to the user through various distribution channels by using the addressability information. The systems and methods can further include recording the collected information over time to refine the ability to predict the user's receptiveness to certain marketing content so as to improve the effectiveness of TMS.

Abstract: A system may include a user interface module, a video services module, and a targeting module. The targeting module may be configured to receive addressability information from the video services module, receive receptiveness information from the video services module, apply filtering information to the receptiveness information, associate filtered receptiveness information with an end user using at least one of an IP address associated with the user interface module or a video services user identifier, perform an aging operation on the filtered receptiveness information, determine whether the end user is part of a target audience, determine an item of targeted content to provide to the end user, and transmit the selected item of the targeted content. The user interface module may be configured to detect signals embedded in an item of video-on-demand content and insert the targeted content from the local cache into a video stream.

Abstract: A privacy key is provided over a network. An information page is provided over the network. A submission of data that is to be transmitted over the network in response to the information page is detected. A subset of the data is to be encrypted using the privacy key is determined. The privacy key is used to encrypt the subset of the data.

Abstract: A client device is registered with a registrar in a network. A graphical user interface that includes a menu for selecting video content is displayed on the client. A request is made via a network according to a standard protocol for video content from a server that is registered with the registrar. Further, video content is received from the server.

Abstract: A system measures a frequency with which a user views a television program and identifies the television program as one of the user's favorite programs based on the measured frequency. The system automatically records, without intervention of the user, the one of the user's favorite programs.

Abstract: A profile includes an indication of one or more topics of interest. A mixing server is configured to create a custom media channel based on the profile. A playback application is configured to provide the custom media channel upon a request from a user, wherein the custom media channel includes more than one item of multimedia content.

Abstract: A system stores a set of telephone numbers dialed by a user. The system selects a subset of telephone numbers from the stored set of telephone numbers as the user's favorite telephone numbers based on one or more first scores, where the one or more scores include a frequency score associated with a frequency that the telephone numbers have been dialed by the user and/or a recency score associated with how recently that the telephone numbers have been dialed by the user. The system stores the list of the user's favorite telephone numbers in memory.

Abstract: Systems and methods can include collecting addressability information about users accessing a service provider's IP-based network communication services, collecting information sufficient to identify when the user is accessing the service provider's IP-based network communication services, collecting data from the IP packets sent or received by the user and using the collected data to associate the user with certain marketing content. The systems and methods can further include sending the marketing content to the user through various distribution channels by using the addressability information. The systems and methods can further include recording the collected information over time to refine the ability to predict the user's receptiveness to certain marketing content so as to improve the effectiveness of TMS.
