A system including an Internet based server running a central data repository database, and deploying spiders to scour the Internet analyzing the millions of product-oriented web pages and newsgroup postings, plus a server application for classifying and indexing all of the information derived from the spiders. The web server pushes downloadable—“Rich Internet Application” (RIA) client application to subscribers running client devices. The RIA client application is accessible directly from any other enabled native application to draw information from the central data repository. The RIA client application presents a navigational user-interface on the client device that presents an array of robust information tools necessary for consumers to obtain a comprehensive shopping and purchase support and participate in alternative marketplaces without leaving the other native application pages they are viewing.

A personal mobile device such as a music player or mobile telephone is equipped with the capability to easily authenticate users into a public gym and into individual exercise equipment at the gym.

A pouch having a distal edge and a proximal edge. A tear notch is located adjacent to the proximal edge. A first pull ring is defined within an edge panel of the proximal end. The first pull ring enables a user to open the pouch by moving the first pull ring to propagate a tear in the pouch from the tear notch toward the distal edge.

A system is disclosed for a digital rights management system which enforces license rights by incorporating a decryption key in a license rights package that further includes an account number associated with a primary consumer. The digital rights management system also includes a mechanism for renewing / updating the license by charging the account number associated with a primary consumer. This way, the consumer may transfer the license rights package along with the digital content to any personal devices he likes but he is discouraged from freely disseminating the license package as uses by other consumers will be debited against his package or, if renewed / extended, charged against his account.

A method of allowing a user to authenticate to an authentication service while isolating information associated with the user from the authentication service includes generating a service user identifier (SUID) associated with an authentication code source, a subscribing site and an authentication service. The method includes creating an association of the SUID with the information associated with the user, and isolating the association within the subscribing site. The method includes providing an authentication code generated by the authentication code-generating device from the user to the subscribing site, and providing the authentication code along with the SUID and information identifying the subscribing site to the authentication service. The method includes identifying the code-generating device, using the SUID and the information identifying the subscribing site, and generating an authentication decision for the authentication code with respect to the code-generating device, and providing the decision to the subscribing site.

Methods and apparatus for simultaneously displaying multiple-contexts in a page-oriented viewing architecture utilize the concept of page pinning in which a portion of a first document context is displayed as a fixed frame overlayed on or placed beside the display of a second document context. A user may navigate within the second document context while viewing the portion of the first document context as a pinned page on the display. Thus, a single navigational focus is maintained even though multiple contexts are displayed in the page-oriented architecture. Page pinning may be used to view two non-contiguous locations in a single electronic document or to view two pages of respective different electronic documents. The invention contemplates the use of a pinned page to hold a particular context while a command set is executed from a command document viewed as the second context. The invention also contemplates the use of a pinned index page to provide a collection of links for permitting a user to navigate to different contexts, including pages within a main document or to other documents. Finally, the invention contemplates the user of a pinned page to provide the equivalent of an “always on top window” display.
