| 20080201419 | EFFICIENT TRANSMISSION OF PRESENCE UPDATE INFORMATION TO PRESENCE SERVICE CLIENTS - To promote efficient transmission of presence update information to a presence service client associated or integrated with a communication client such as an instant messaging (IM) client, a separate computing device may be notified when the communication client becomes dormant. The separate device may buffer presence updates destined for the communication client, each presence update containing information regarding availability of at least one of a set of contacts for intercommunication via said communication client. When the separate device learns that either the communication client has ceased being dormant or that an event has occurred which shall cause the communication client to cease being dormant, the buffered presence updates may be sent to the presence service client. Presence updates within the buffered set may be reconciled to eliminate obsolete information. The result may be a conservation of wireless connection bandwidth or reduction in device power consumption. | 08-21-2008 |

A menu item may be provided that, when selected enables the user to enter a common message that, when sent is applied to each of the active conversations. This allows the user to convey the same information to multiple parties, e.g. when they suddenly become unavailable. The user may also use one or more default messages to further speed up the process. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20110009133 | System and Method for Managing Items in a List Shared by a Group of Mobile Devices - A method and system are provided for sharing data amongst a group of a plurality of mobile devices without requiring a database or server to centrally store the shared data. The shared data is instead stored by each group member individually while controlling the manner in which the shared data is updated. The shared data can be used to manage tasks in a group project. To manage updates, the shared data is atomized such that individual databases in the shared data are separated or otherwise delineated into one or more records, each record having associated therewith, a value. To maintain a common copy of the shared data at each device, any update is sent to all group members using an intermediate message exchange service that is capable of transmitting a sent message to more than one recipient if necessary. In this way, the updates are multicast to the group. To manage the content of the shared data, each update comprises one or more changes to a current copy of a corresponding record. | 01-13-2011 |

| 20110099612 | AUTOMATIC USER AUTHENTICATION AND IDENTIFICATION FOR MOBILE INSTANT MESSAGING APPLICATION - Automatic identification and authentication of a user of a mobile application entails receiving from the wireless communications device a unique device identifier and an e-mail address corresponding to the wireless communications device, associating a registration identifier with the unique device identifier and the e-mail address, generating an authentication token, and communicating the authentication token and the registration identifier to the wireless communications device. This technology obviates the need for the user to remember and enter a user ID and password to access backed-up application data on a server. This is particularly useful for instant messaging applications, e.g. PIN messaging, in which the unique device identifier is used to identify the user and is also the transport address. Once registered, the user who has switched to a new device or has wiped his existing device, can restore contacts or other application data from the server based on the registration identifier. | 04-28-2011 |

| 20110279323 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING LOCATION INFORMATION ON MOBILE DEVICES - A system and method for activating a GPS receiver or a WiFi receiver on a mobile device may be provided, which comprises determining an approximate location of the mobile device. The approximate location of the mobile device may be determined using cell tower location information. If the approximate location of the mobile device is within a predetermined distance from a desired location, or is “close enough”, then the GPS receiver or the WiFi receiver is activated. The GPS receiver or the WiFi receiver is activated to determine a more accurate location of the mobile device. The approximate and the more accurate location information may be exchanged with another mobile device to allow the user to find one another. | 11-17-2011 |
| 20120059787 | Dynamically Manipulating An Emoticon or Avatar - Graphical user representations, such as emoticons or avatars, used to convey mood and emotion, can be dynamically modified and manipulated, e.g. by squeezing, rotating, distorting, colouring, etc. This enables a user to customize or tailor an existing emoticon to better reflect the user's current mood or emotion.
