A method and system for providing refined location relevant marketing devices whereby a marketing device management system obtains: data representing one or more marketing devices from one or more merchants; location refinement data associated with the merchants; location refinement data associated with the marketing devices; and location refinement data associated with a consumer. The marketing device management system includes a marketing device matching engine that includes a location refinement matching filter. The location refinement matching filter uses all, or part of: the location refinement data associated with the merchant; the location refinement data associated with the marketing devices; and the location refinement data associated with the consumer; to determine the marketing devices in the marketing device database most relevant to the consumer, and the consumer's current state. The most relevant marketing devices are then provided to the consumer.

Methods, systems and articles of manufacture for computerized employment recruiting are provided. The system accesses a candidate database of candidate data for a plurality of candidates and a job posting database. The system compares the qualifications of the candidates to the job criteria for the job postings and determines a match between the qualifications and the job criteria. The system also identifies a inferred links between the candidates and the employer for the job postings to provide an added reliability factor to the referred candidates. The system ranks the matched candidates based, at least in part, using the inferred links and provides the ranked candidates to the employer. The system may use ontology based, and semantic matching based, algorithms for matching candidates to job postings, and also for identifying inferred links between candidates and employers.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a system for facilitating a text message conversation using tele-links. During operation, the system receives a text message from a service at a mobile device, wherein the text message includes a tele-link, wherein the tele-link is comprised of a phone number. Next, the system receives a selection of the tele-link from a user at the mobile device. In response to the selection, the system then automatically initiates a call from the mobile device to a number indicated by the tele-link, wherein the act of calling the number results in the service sending a second text message to the mobile device. Finally, the system receives the second text message from the service at the mobile device.
