Abstract: A mechanism for accepting motion-based character input on a mobile computing device. In order to input a character, a user uses the mobile computing device like a pen to write the character in the air. The mechanism detects the movement of the mobile computing device (e.g., through an on-board accelerometer), recognizes a sequence of strokes the user is making using the mobile computing device, recognizes the character based on the sequence, and inputs the character on the mobile computing device (e.g., renders on a display).

Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for implementing managing relationships between data on a mobile computing based on user creation and definition of the relationships. A mobile computing device user generates asymmetric relationships between stored entities, events, tasks and communications. These asymmetric relationships are custom-generated by the user to reflect the user's classification and evaluation of the relationships. The user also assigns a score to each relationship and stored entity, event, task and communication to represent the user's classification of the relationship, entity, event, task or communication. Hence, the user assigns a value to the relationships between data as well as the stored data to indicate which relationship or stored data is most valuable to the user. The user-defined relationships between data can be automatically displayed when the mobile communication device is used to interact with a stored entity.
