An array of programmable non-volatile devices are is adapted such that their logic state is controllably altered over time by quiescent changes, slow controlled changes, scheduled changes, or some combination thereof imposed at a physical level. This allows for improved security and privacy for data to be permanently deleted. In some applications a data refresh and/or automatic backup can be implemented as well.

Ephemeral storage elements, circuits, and systems

An ephemeral peripheral system includes an ephemeral memory system and controller circuit for securing user data for a smartphone application. Different secure operating modes are provided for customizing user security requirements across end-to-end communications links, including in exchanges of electronic data between smartphone devices.

Ephemeral peripheral device

An ephemeral system includes an ephemeral communications device and associated ephemeral memory system (onboard or peripheral) for securing user data. Different secure operating modes are provided for customizing user security requirements across end-to-end communications links, including in exchanges of electronic data between smartphone devices.

Method of operating ephemeral peripheral device

Electronic documents are classified and compared according to their temporal qualities. The content of a document relating to an event is analyzed to identify temporal components. These components can be compared with corresponding counterparts in other documents to identify a relative temporal order. The invention can be used in environments such as automated news aggregators, search engines, and other electronic systems which compile information having temporal qualities.

Temporal document sorter and method

Advertising and search is performed using temporal parameters of stories, events, topics and electronic documents. The contents of a document relating to an event/topic is analyzed to identify temporal components. These components can be compared with corresponding counterparts in other documents to identify a relative temporal order, and to help drive an advertising engine or search engine.

Temporal based online search and advertising

Items&#x2014;including gourmet products&#x2014;are evaluated and rated by participants in a controlled event, which can be coordinated by software locally or at a dedicated website. Event data, including item scores and participant scores can be shared with vendors, merchants and other commercial entities associated with the products. Promotional incentives from such entities for the products (and related products) can then be directly targeted and provided to participants and other members of the public. The participant's activities can also be collected and disseminated to affiliates/friends of the participants through social networking sites, personalized web pages, etc.

Item data collection systems and methods with social network integration

A content engagement system includes game logic configured to help users and their social contacts to find interesting content. The outputs can be used for optimizing ads, content, search results, etc., on mobile devices, social networking sites and similar domains.

Social content connection system and method

An audible based electronic challenge system is used to control access to resources by using a test to identify an origin of a voice. The test is based on optimized text sentences selected for their discrimination capability in identifying different speakers.

System and method for discriminating between speakers for authentication

A system and method are disclosed for presenting relevant advertising to user search queries. The ads can be selected by reference to an underlying content presented in organic search results. The ads can be combined and supplemented with conventional keyword/pay for placement type services to improve ad performance. The system can also be used for testing content related ads in advance of their presentation to potential third party partners in an advertising campaign.

System and method of delivering content based advertising

A programmable non-volatile memory device effectuates two different functions (read, erase (re-program)) during a single instruction or command. During a first phase of the command a cell state is determined by a memory controller circuit, and in a second phase of the same command the cell state is re-written. This implementation is useful for applications where it is desirable to permit one time access only of particular data/content.

One time accessible (OTA) non-volatile memory

A document management system monitors proposed recipients for documents and provides recommendations on alterations to the distribution set, such as by adding or removing recipients.

Social network site recommender system and method

An electronic challenge system is used to control access to resources by using a spoken test to identify an origin of a voice. The test is based on a series of questions posed during an interactive dialog session with the entity attempting access.

System and method for identifying speakers

A system and method is disclosed for presenting relevant advertising to web pages, including web logs. The ads can be selected by reference to an underlying content presented in web logs, based on extracting topics from the pages, and using these topics as the basis for a search query. Ads can then be matched against another set of topics derived from web pages forming the search results to the query.

System and method of delivering content based advertising within a blog

An electronic competitive challenge is disclosed. A prompt is presented to a group of participants. A computer system with a speech recognition module listens for multiple, simultaneous speech utterances from the group of participants. Each speech utterance is decoded, assigned a priority or timing, and associated with one of the participants. Based on the priority or timing, the content of the utterances, and a predefined rule set, one of the participants is identified as the competitive challenge winner. The prompt may be an electronic image, and the utterances may relate to a concept associated with or reflected in the image. The image may be drawn by a human and presented in a visual sequence that tracks its original creation, or it may be an image that is automatically degraded using image processing to disguise its content.
