Abstract: Methods and arrangements are provided for podcast listeners to allocate and distribute payments to podcast content creators based on their engagement and enjoyment of the podcasts. An allocation system provides for monitoring of engagement metrics of listeners, including such metrics as percent of podcast consumed, frequency of consumption, whether the podcast is regularly listened to during a daily commute, and other signs of engagement with the content. Listeners provide a donation budget to the allocation system, representing the total amount of donation for all podcasts listened to. The allocation system then allocates a portion of the donation budget to each podcast according to the level of engagement represented by the engagement metrics that are monitored.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for inserting dynamic content into podcast episodes. The system first detects a playback of a podcast episode, the podcast episode including at least one media item. Next, the system identifies a content insertion point in the podcast episode for inserting a content item into the podcast episode during the playback of the podcast episode. The system then dynamically inserts the content item into the content insertion point in the podcast episode during the playback of the podcast episode, wherein the podcast episode is configured to pause playback of the podcast episode and initiate playback of the content item when the playback of the podcast episode reaches a playback position associated with the content insertion point.

Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems for mini-form view of data records are described. Each data records can be formatted according to a layout. The layout can define an arrangement of various data fields for display. To display multiple data records, an image can be created for each formatted data record. Each image can be a snapshot of the formatted data record. The image can have a size that is smaller than the size of the layout. The arrangement of the data fields can be preserved in the image. Multiple images of formatted data records can be displayed in a single window. By displaying formatted data records in images, the “look and feel” in the layout of each data record can be preserved, even when multiple records are displayed. The mini-form view can display data records from multiple shared databases.

Abstract translation: 描述了数据记录的微型视图的方法，程序产品和系统。 每个数据记录可以根据布局进行格式化。 布局可以定义用于显示的各种数据字段的布置。 要显示多个数据记录，可以为每个格式化的数据记录创建一个图像。 每个图像可以是格式化数据记录的快照。 图像的尺寸可以小于布局的大小。 可以在图像中保留数据字段的排列。 可以在单个窗口中显示格式化数据记录的多个图像。 通过在图像中显示格式化的数据记录，即使显示多个记录，也可以保留每个数据记录的布局中的“外观和感觉”。 微型窗体视图可以显示来自多个共享数据库的数据记录。
