An elapsed time that the geo-fences are not triggered can be monitored. If the elapsed time exceeds a threshold, additional geo-fences can be added based on a second identifier that is associated with the additional geo-fences. Whether the elapsed time is going to exceed the threshold can be predicted, and the additional geo-fences added at the time of the prediction, which may be before the elapsed time actually exceeds the threshold. Additionally, the user can be prompted regarding adding additional geo-fences before or after the elapsed time might exceed the threshold. | 09-04-2014 |
20140278444 | CONTEXT-SENSITIVE HANDLING OF INTERRUPTIONS - A speech output to be provided to a user of a device is received.

20140082069 | AUTOMATED COORDINATION OF RIDE SHARING BETWEEN MEMBERS OF SOCIAL GROUP - Ride-sharing transportation arrangements can be electronically coordinated between members of a social group. The coordination can involve allowing members to electronically request or offer rides, gathering information pertinent to the ride share (e.g., a current or home location or a suspected destination location based on invitation response), generating proposed ride-sharing transportation routes, and sequentially presenting the proposed routes to members in order to arrive at an agreeable arrangement without unduly bothering involved members. Ride-sharing can thus be promoted due to the ease of the coordination, ride-sharers' familiarity and comfort with each other, and potentially, due to ride-sharers' overlap in destination locations. | 03-20-2014 |
