The invention relates to a method and system for profiling recipients into recipient categories on the basis of responses to content items provided to users. The profiling is based on rankings that are assigned to the content items, recipient categories, links between the content items and links between the content items and recipient categories. In one embodiment the ranking of a given content item is calculated on the basis of rankings of other content items having a link to the given content item, together with the ranking of the link between the content items, while the ranking of a given respondent in respect of a given recipient category is calculated on the basis of rankings of content items and/or categories that have a link to that recipient category. The links between content items and to the recipient categories indicate a particular response, by the respondent, in respect of content items. The recipients are profiled with respect to the recipient categories on the basis of the rankings assigned to the recipient categories.

Methodologies, systems and software support or implement functionality to provide sponsored browsing of web/WAP sites and/or services for mobile device users wherein web sites are selected for browsing in dependence on a data size requirement for providing access to content available from a given web/WAP site.

Systems, methods, network elements and applications in connection with browsing of web/WAP sites and services

Methodologies and mechanisms are provided that enable the monitoring of communication dialogs or sessions between a plurality of users or a user and a content service and a determination of content to be added to current and/or future messages sent in the communication dialog(s) or session(s) based on content of one or more previously sent messages. In embodiments of the invention the message and previous message comprising the dialogue(s) or session(s) are transmitted between a first party and a second party and the messages are intercepted en route for a respective party.

System and method for delivering upon request credits having monetary value to a mobile device using a communications network. An account of available credit for the user of the mobile device is maintained and authorization to issue credit is generated when a request for credit for the mobile device is received and there is available credit in the account associated with the mobile device equal to or greater than the requested credit. Credit may be sponsored by one or more sponsors and issued to the user, upon authorization, to enable the user to use the mobile device to purchase items, e.g., at a point of sale terminal.

Method and system for payment and/or issuance of credits via a mobile device

Methodologies and system functionality are provided to determine mobile device capabilities and/or configuration setting and user abilities and/or inclinations as a precursor to or as part of the management, delivery and/or assessment of the efficacy of promotional material. The determination of the mobile device capabilities and/or configuration settings and user abilities and/or inclinations may be performed, for example, when provisioning a new service or after such a service has been utilized by a mobile device user. Further, such a determination may be performed in connection with a mobile device service that provides free or subsidized service to mobile device users.

System and method for determining mobile device capabilities

A method of recording allocation of resources in response to a request for a data item to be transmitted to a device in the network where the request comprises data indicative of one or more requested items. The device is typically a mobile device and the requested items can be key words making up a search request or can be web site names indicating web sites of interest to the user. In response to the request, data listings having items generating a match with the requested data item are identified and data indicative of a network location corresponding to the or each matched data item are retrieved. In addition data indicative of an amount of data and a resource allocation associated with the set of data accessible via the network location are retrieved and these data, together with a network subscription associated with device and the amount of data, are used to evaluate actual usage of network resources when accessing the set of data. If data are subsequently requested from the network location the evaluated actual usage is offset against the resource allocation so as to identify an amount of usage of network resources to be charged to the network subscription, and a record associated with said data listing is updated so as to log said resource allocation event.

System and method for identifying a characteristic of a set of data accessible via a link specifying a network location

Method and system for network resources allocation

A method and user interface for designating an element of data as having a type of downloadable status, wherein the user interface is processable by a mobile terminal including a transceiver arranged to receive data indicative of a set of data accessible from a network location. The user interface includes a display arranged to display a plurality of selectable display objects which are assigned to corresponding elements of the set of data. The display is responsive to selection of a given display object so as to designate the element of data corresponding thereto as having a first type of downloadable status. The transceiver transmits selection data to a network node for use in controlling the selection of elements of the set of data to be subsequently transmitted to the mobile terminal and to receive the selected elements of the set of data when transmitted to the mobile terminal.
