    摘要: A method for saving and restoring collaborative applications to a selected earlier time, may include saving, by a processing device, content for each collaborative application of a plurality of collaborative applications as a user uses each of the collaborative applications. The method may additionally include restoring each collaborative application to a selected earlier time in response to the selected earlier time being selected by the user. The method may further include presenting the content of each collaborative application at the selected earlier time to the user in response to each collaborative application being restored to the selected earlier time, wherein each collaborative application is presented in an original context from the selected earlier time.

    摘要: Methods for determining the location of a stylus for a portable electronic device are disclosed. One embodiment provides a method for determining at a first time that a stylus was not returned to a stylus receiver of the portable electronic device and determining last usage information relating to a last usage of the stylus at a second, earlier time. The method may further include storing by the portable electronic device the determined last usage information and determining stylus location information based on the last usage information. The method may further include providing an indication of the stylus location information to a user. Stylus location information may include one or more of a physical location, a geographic location, a calendar event associated with a last usage, directions to a place of last usage, an application being used at last usage of the stylus, or a user identity.

    摘要: Provided is a method for caching a media stream such as a television channel or a radio station such that a viewer or listener may receive an entire programming segment regardless of when in the segment the stream is accessed. The beginning of a segment is recalled, or downloaded, to a local cache during a switch to the channel transmitting the segment and associated with a playback marker. The segment is also cached as the segment is transmitted. The user views the segment from the beginning, first from the cache downloaded when the channel is switched and, then, from the local cache stored as the programmed is viewed. In the case of broadcast media, a number of streams are designated as monitored streams. The programming on monitored streams is segmented into programs or smaller segments and the segments are cached on local memory as the programs are broadcast.

    摘要: Provided is a method for generating and updating screenshots within computer software documentation. The disclosed techniques enable software documentation to insert up-to-date screenshots either upon installation of the corresponding software, dynamically when the documentation is used, or in some combination of the two approaches. In one embodiment, the computing system or application detects when screenshots have been modified and regenerates screenshots within affected documentation. Documentation is created that includes text and macros. The macros provide for the inclusion of screenshots within the documentation. Each macro includes information about where an associated screenshot is to be captured, the steps necessary to capture the screenshot and the location within the documentation where the screenshot is displayed. Also included in association with the macros is configuration information necessary to generate the appropriate screenshot.

    摘要: Provided is a method for controlling a media device such that a user can define specific events as interruptions and automatically change the channel when one of these events is detected. The media control device (MCD) is configurable, both respect to the type of event that is considered an interruption and the alternate channel(s) to which the media device is changed. Once the interrupt has concluded, the MCD changes the radio back to the original station. In the alternative, during an interruption the MCD may simply replace the interrupted channel with a stream from another device. Introduction of a short time delay between the reception of a media signal and the presentation of the signal to a user enables the MCD to execute the described functions in a manner that appears seamless to the user.

    摘要: Methods 400 are provided for using RFIDs to aid in creating and documenting electronic e-mail communications. A communication device such as a computer system 200 capable of sending e-mail is configured with an RFID reader 215. When a user is composing an e-mail to send and the computer system 200 detects an RFID identity tag 120 of the user, an authentication content is attached to the e-mail. The authentication content attached to the e-mail helps to authenticate the identity of the user to the person receiving the e-mail.

    摘要: Provided is a method that enables a media subscriber to pay for and send pay-per-view media content to a third party. The subscriber is billed for the content in a normal fashion. The viewer selects a specific program that is scheduled for transmission and provides information about the identity of the other subscriber, or the recipient, so that the content can be delivered to the recipient. Additional information may include a reason for sending the program and an additional message. The recipient receives notification that the programming has been purchased on his or her behalf and is given the option of accepting or declining the program. If the recipient accepts the program, the recipient may specify a date and time for viewing or specify that the programming be recorded.

    摘要: Methods 400 are provided for using RFIDs to aid in creating and documenting electronic e-mail communications. A communication device 101 capable of sending e-mail is configured with an RFID transmitter and detector, or RFID transceiver. When the device is in the presence of other devices, the user may choose to capture the e-mail addresses of the other device using the RFID detection capability. Each device has an RFID associated with an e-mail address. By detecting the other RFID devices, the user may automatically capture their associated e-mail addresses.
