Benefits of technology

[0013]The present invention comprises an application distribution and metrics system as well as an application monetizing system (ADMS). The ADMS incorporates a cross-platform application distribution system and a usage-based and ad-based monetizing system which allows for fine-tuned usage-based pricing schemes to be created based on system-defined metrics and developer-defined metrics, seamless integration of ad-based monetizing, third party participation in monetizing efforts, and a flexible revenue allocation process.
[0014]The ADMS facilitates interactions between computing systems by acting as an intermediary via which a distributed application, is made available to a host application end user.

Problems solved by technology

Widgets also have security restrictions placed on them due to web client constraints.
Widgets have a very crucial downside in that the content they generate is not visible to search engines.
Sites deploying content as widgets will thus lose the value of having that content indexed and stored on search engines, thus reducing their chances of being discovered on a search engine.
None of the above mentioned techniques offer any real advantage to the developer of software applications with respect to application metrics gathering and application monetizing scheme implementation.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED PATENT APPLICATIONS[0001]This patent application is a continuation-in-part of applicant's patent cooperation treaty application PCT / US2009 / 002967 (filed in United States on May 13, 2009) which in turn claimed priority based upon U.S. provisional patent application 61 / 127,441 (filed on May 13, 2008). The entire disclosure of both patent applications is hereby incorporated by reference into this specification.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to the creation and distribution of software applications, the management of software application metrics, and the monetizing of software applications; more particularly to facilitate the distribution of software applications by acting as a intermediary which transforms software applications in such a way that allows for their integration with host software applications, while also enabling software application metrics to be gathered and operated upon allowing for software application moneti...
