| 20110035793 | TRANSPARENT RECONNECTION - In the event of an unintentional interruption, a token issued by a host system to a client system is used to reestablish communications without disrupting applications on the client system. If the host system provided an Internet Protocol address to the client system to be used during the interrupted communications session, the host system reserves the communications address during an interruption in communications for a period sufficient to permit reestablishment of communications using the reserved address. | 02-10-2011 |

| 20090271527 | CACHING SIGNATURES - The performance of a network system having one or more requestor nodes, one or more provider nodes, and one or more intermediate nodes is improved by determining the digital signature of a received file, looking up the digital signature in an index of signatures, and forwarding a previously compressed version of the requested file when the digital signature is found in the index of signatures. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20100104080 | SOURCE AUDIO IDENTIFIERS FOR DIGITAL COMMUNICATIONS - Audibly informing a recipient of an arrival of a digital communication from a sender includes receiving a digital communication from a sender directed to a recipient and determining whether the digital communication is associated with an audio identifier that identifies the sender of the digital communication and that is designated by the sender of the digital communication. Perception by the recipient of the audio identifier is conditioned on whether the digital communication is determined to be associated with the audio identifier. The audio identifier is perceived prior to or concurrent with perception of the digital communication by the recipient. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100219971 | Concatenated Audio Messages - Audibly identifying an event includes enabling selection of a first sound based upon an identifier. The identifier enables identification of an entity related to the event. A notification of an occurrence of the event is received. The notification includes the identifier. An intended recipient is alerted of the event by playing, in response to the notification, at least a portion of the first sound and at least a portion of a second sound that is related to the event. | 09-02-2010 |

| 20090059922 | Systems and Methods for Multicast Communication - Embodiments of multicast messaging systems and methods are disclosed for facilitating the multicasting of messages and/or other content to a group of users such that users may send messages to a group. One embodiment includes a method of transmitting multicast messages, including receiving a first multicast message and an indication of a first message group from a first sending user, identifying a first set of recipients related to the first message group, and transmitting the first message to the identified recipients. Another embodiment includes a computer system configured to receive a multicast message designating a group and then to communicate the multicast message to intended recipients. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090213001 | Dynamic Location of a Subordinate User - Providing location information to a supervisory user includes providing a parental control, using a computer automatically to determine a location of a subordinate user, and storing location information indicative of the location of the subordinate user in a database. A request of the supervisory user to locate the subordinate user is received and a user interface informs the supervisory user of the location of the subordinate user based on the stored location information. At least one of the storing and/or the informing are based on the parental control. | 08-27-2009 |
| 20090248816 | Passive Personalization of Buddy Lists - Personalizing communications for a first communication platform includes accessing status information for communication sessions by a communication identity that leverage a first communication platform other than an instant messaging platform. A participant list associated with the communication identity and the first communication platform is passively configured to persistently reflect a list of participant identities from communication sessions in which the communication identity recently participated using the communication platform. | 10-01-2009 |
