Patent number: 10095663Abstract: A system and process are disclosed for providing users with page previews during page loading events, such that the delay experienced before the display of page content is reduced. The previews may include screenshots of the pages or of portions thereof, and may be generated periodically and cached by the system for delivery to user devices. The process of generating and delivering the previews via the Internet or some other network may be implemented partly or wholly within an intermediary system that sits logically between the user devices and content servers. The process may be used with existing browsers without the need for any browser modifications, or may be used with a “preview-aware” browser that includes special program code for providing page previews.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2013Date of Patent: October 9, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Rohit Krishna Kumar, Scott Zachary Bressler, Ivan King Yu Sham, Ian William Stewart, Brett Richard Taylor, Peter Frank Hill, Aakarsh Nair, Steven Michael Reddie, Patrick Joseph Armstrong, Samuel John Young, Ameet Nirmal Vaswani, Andrew Lynch Hayden

Patent number: 9860337Abstract: Features are disclosed for enabling users to discover content with different opinions or sentiments regarding particular topics. In some embodiments, users may request content expressing an opinion regarding a topic that is contrary or otherwise different than the opinion expressed in a currently viewed or selected content item. A service or system can identify content items related to the same topic, analyze sentiments expressed regarding the topic, and provide the user with a listing or other data regarding content with differing opinions. In some embodiments, the service or system may proactively search for and classify content as expressing particular opinions about particular topics in the absence of a request from a user. In some embodiments, the service or system may proactively provide users with data regarding the availability of content items with contrary opinions.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: January 2, 2018Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Aaron Michael Brown, Steven Michael Reddie

Patent number: 9413840Abstract: Features are disclosed for enabling users to efficiently store and share browsing sessions or portions thereof with other users or the general public. Browsing session requests and other activities may be sent to an intermediary system, which can retrieve requested content and store a representation of the requested content or data regarding the requested content. The stored data may be organized as a saved browsing session such that users may access the shared browsing session at a subsequent time and view the browsing session substantially in its entirety. Users may search for shared browsing sessions and access data regarding the requests made during a browsing session. In addition, data regarding client devices used during shared browsing sessions may be tracked and associated with the shared browsing sessions such that subsequent users can search for shared browsing sessions based partly on such device characteristics.Type: GrantFiled: January 28, 2013Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: AMAZON TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Brett Richard Taylor, Peter Frank Hill, Ameet Nirmal Vaswani, Samuel John Young, Aaron Michael Brown, Steven Michael Reddie, Matthew Lloyd Trahan
