A website server computer hosting a website can identify a visitor to the website by using information provided by a visitor server computer that interacts with the visitor. The information provided by the server computer, in some embodiments, can be a combination of an IP address and characteristics of a computing device from where the visitor visits the website. In some embodiments, the IP address of the visitor server computer is used. In embodiments where the visitor may be sharing the computing device with other users, the characteristics may include at least one characteristic that is uniquely associated with the visitor. The website server computer can use a visitor identifier thus generated to start tracking the pages that the visitor requests during the session and can generate and customize pages for the visitor by using characteristics originated from the visitor.

Method and system for identifying website visitors

A solar collector system including solar elements connected to form an array for intercepting the sun's radiation, a compression element that is positioned substantially perpendicular to the array, and pairs of cables that run from opposite sides of the array to the compression element to mutually stabilize each portion of the array to which the pair of cables connects. A support structure is provided for securing the array to a fixed structure. A tracking system further provides the system with two degrees of freedom for tracking the array with the sun's movement.

Solar collector stabilized by cables and a compression element

A method and system can be used to identify visitors at a network site (e.g., a website) by using a combination of an address (e.g., IP address) and characteristic(s) of an individual visitor computer. Examples of the characteristic of the individual visitor computer can include the type of the computer, CPU identifier, OS, browser application and version, compatibility of the browser application with other browser applications, display size, screen resolution, locale information, installed plug-in software component(s), mimetypes supported, whether a programming language is enabled, accessory(ies) that can be activated by a browser application, or any other information that may be used in locating or generating a page. The method and system is more accurate than just using an IP address, and the information used for visitor identification will not usually be blocked if cookies are unavailable.
