20120124071EXTENSIBLE SEARCH TERM SUGGESTION ENGINE - A search term suggestion engine of a computing device receives characters of user data as the characters are input. The user data is at least part of a search term to be provided to one of multiple applications to search for the search term. An indication of multiple suggestion sources is received from the one application, and one or more suggested search terms are obtained, from the multiple suggestion sources, based on the received characters. One or more suggested search terms can also be obtained from the multiple suggestion sources based on one or more linguistic alternatives for the received characters. The one or more suggested search terms are combined into a combined set of suggested search terms, and the combined set of suggested search terms is returned to a search user interface for presentation to the user.05-17-2012

20100154305METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR CATALYTIC HYDROTHERMAL GASIFICATION OF BIOMASS - Continuous processing of wet biomass feedstock by catalytic hydrothermal gasification must address catalyst fouling and poisoning. One solution can involve heating the wet biomass with a heating unit to a temperature sufficient for organic constituents in the feedstock to decompose, for precipitates of inorganic wastes to form, for preheating the wet feedstock in preparation for subsequent separation of sulfur contaminants, or combinations thereof. Treatment further includes separating the precipitates out of the wet feedstock, removing sulfur contaminants, or both using a solids separation unit and a sulfur separation unit, respectively. Having removed much of the inorganic wastes and the sulfur that can cause poisoning and fouling, the wet biomass feedstock can be exposed to the heterogeneous catalyst for gasification.06-24-2010

20110004519One-Way Public Relationships - Techniques are described to establish one-way public relationships. In an implementation, a control is exposed that is operable to become a fan of an object within a social networking page. Responsive to operation of the control, data may be stored to establish a one-way public relationship between a user and the selected object. By establishing a one-way public relationship rather than a mutual friend relationship, the object and/or a corresponding owner of the object is not included in the user's social network and is not provided access to the user's profile, status, or other personal information. The one-way public relationship may be employed by a service provider to serve content related to the object to the user. The one-way public relationships may also be employed by the service provider to push status updates regarding the object to “fans” of the object.01-06-2011
20110004561Contact Information Aggregation - Techniques are described to aggregate contact information.

20110010305Information Aggregation Service - Information aggregation techniques are described. In an implementation, a communication is received that includes an indication of a source of information associated with a non-member of the social network. Information associated with the non-member is aggregated from the source. The aggregation may be performed in response to receipt of a selection by a member of the social network service to interact with the information from the source. The aggregated information may then be presented to a member in conjunction with webpages output for interaction with the social network.01-13-2011
20110191371SOCIAL NETWORK SEARCH - Social network search techniques are described. In an implementation, one or more search criteria are stored that are usable to search for users of a social network service. Responsive to a new user joining the social network service, a search of data associated with the new user is performed using the stored one or more search criteria to determine whether the one or more search criteria are met by the new user.08-04-2011

20090187791Failure Location Detection Using Types in Assembly Files - A failure identification routine uses a two pass stack trace analysis in conjunction with a list of called types. As each method is called, a call list is generated with the called type, method, and various metadata. During the first pass stack trace analysis, each stack frame is analyzed to determine if the failed type is included in the stack frame. If so, the method associated with the frame is flagged as suspect. If the failed type is not found in the first stack trace, a second pass stack trace analysis is performed and an assembly associated with the method associated with the stack frame is analyzed to determine a set of types. The set of types are analyzed to find at least one match with the called types. If a match exists, the methods associated with the matched types are flagged as suspect.07-23-2009
