In one example embodiment, a system and method is shown that includes receiving financial data generated by a widget residing on a web page, the financial data including at least one of donation, or purchase data. The system and method may further include transmitting a display update to update the widget, the updating based upon the financial data. Some example embodiments may include, selecting a widget using an input device to generate data including at least one of donation or purchase data. Moreover, the system and method may include transmitting the at least one of donation or purchase data. Further, the system and method may include storing the at least one of donation or purchase data to a cookie.

Micro payments

This document discusses, among other things, example embodiments of a transaction system that may receive, over a network, a first set of transaction data associated with a transaction for an item. In an example embodiment, a reputation application may adjust a rating associated with the transaction when the first set of transaction data indicates a purchase or a return of the item.

Network reputation and payment service

This document describes, among other things, systems and methods for measuring reputation using take volume. A method comprises determining a take amount related to a transaction in which a user participated; accumulating the take amount with a total take amount accumulated from one or more other transactions; determining feedback related to the transaction; accumulating the take amount with a total positive take amount when the feedback is positive feedback; and including the total positive take amount in reputation information related to the user.

System and method for measuring reputation using take volume

A method and system to verify a transaction are described. The system may include a token generator to issue a client set of tokens to a client, a token verification list generator to issue a verification set of tokens to a provider, a communication module to receive a request from the provider to redeem a provider set of tokens, and a redemption module. The redemption module may be configured to compare the provider set of tokens with the client set of tokens and to selectively redeem the provider set of tokens based on the results of the comparison.

Method and system to verify a transaction

Methods are provided for smoothing input signals having rapidly changing amplitudes, such as EMG signals from the tongue, which are detected by an intraoral device. One method calls for amplifying the EMG signals, converting the EMG signals to digital format, providing a moving average of the amplitudes of the EKG signals utilizing a moving the average processor, and windowing the averaged signals to discrete and stable amplitude levels. An adaptive moving average technique may be utilized, which includes a plurality of parallel moving average processes and a differentiator which determines which process is used, depending on the rate of change of the signal amplitude. Another method calls for the use of a plurality of moving average processes in series which calculate the moving average of the same number of signals as a single moving average process, but has a faster response time. An intraoral device is used to detect the EMG signals. The intraoral device includes acrylic maxillary and mandibular splints. The maxillary splint has reference electrodes attached to its palate side, while the mandibular splint has active electrodes attached to the gum side. The intraoral device is strengthened by the use of woven fiberglass imbedded in its acrylic body.
