Appl. No.:

13/469597

Inventors:

Jaireh Tecarro - San Francisco CA, US

Assignee:

BARNES & NOBLE, INC. - New York NY

International Classification:

G06F 3/048

US Classification:

715841

Abstract:

A system and method for organizing viewing and reading of electronic periodicals on electronic devices, particularly mobile devices. The user's periodicals are arranged on the device's User Interface (UI) in visual representations of stacks. Each stack represents a different one of the user's periodicals. As a user selects a particular stack representing a particular ePeriodical, the stack is animated to spread out in drawer or in a grid to display thumbnails representing the covers of individual issue of the ePeriodical. The user can scroll the drawer or grid to view the issues. If the user has ePeriodicals stored on remote servers, the user interface has a control that the user can activate to download the thumbnail covers of the remotely stored ePeriodicals. Once the user has found the desired ePeriodical to read, the cover thumbnail can be selected to open and display the ePeriodical.

US Classification:

715738

Abstract:

A system and method for recommending digital content in which a user employs her contacts list to recommend the digital content. The recommender initiates the recommendation process using her local device by generating a recommendation. The recommendation contains an identification of the recommender, an identification of the contact and an identification of the digital content to be recommended. The recommendation is communicated from the recommender's local device through a communication channel to a server. The server processes the recommendation from the recommender and generates a recommendation email and/or a recommendation notification. The recommendation email and notification are sent to the recommendee through a communication channel selected by the recommender. The recommendation email further contains a URL that directs the recommendee back to a summary of the recommended digital content.

International Classification:

G06N 5/02
G06F 11/34
G06F 40/20

Abstract:

This relates generally to intelligent automated assistants and, more specifically, to provide intelligent device selections by the intelligent automated assistants for performing requested actions. An example method includes, at an electronic device receiving a user request from a user, identifying the user, a domain type of the user request, and one or more electronic devices available for handling the user request; retrieving one or more historical interactions involving at least one of the identified user, the domain type, and the one or more electronic devices, generating metadata based on the one or more historical interactions, location information of the one or more electronic devices, and context information associated with the one or more electronic devices; identifying a delivery device by interpreting the metadata using a preference model; and transmitting a response command to the delivery device for providing the result output.
