Server That Obtains Information From Multiple Sources, Filters Using Client Identities, And Dispatches To Both Hardwired And Wireless Clients

US Patent:
6779022, Aug 17, 2004
Filed:
Aug 17, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/641551
Inventors:
Jens U. Horstmann - Santa Clara CA
Alan Rothkopf - Palo Alto CA
Tal Dayan - Cupertino CA
Arie Avnur - Cupertino CA
Justin M. Kitagawa - Moraga CA
Carolyn B. Boyce - Sunnyvale CA
Aleksandr M. Schvartsman - Sunnyvale CA
Aswath N. Satrasala - San Jose CA
Vincent L. Tang - Pleasanton CA
Assignee:
Jens Horstmann - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G06F 1516
US Classification:
709206
Abstract:
A mail server collects messages from a number of user accounts and presents them to the user from a single location. The user can set the mail server to block unwanted messages and to forward others to various receiving devices, including mobile telephones and pagers. Forwarded messages are automatically reformatted for the receiving device, while a copy of the original message is retained. The retained copy can be viewed later if the user is interested in message content that was not available to the wireless device. The user can also use the wireless device to forward the original message to another receiving device. In the case of forwarding, the saved original message and not the reformatted message is sent to the forwarding address. Some embodiments include an email agent that automatically pushes messages from intranet clients to the mail server through a firewall, thereby enabling the mail server to consolidate messages from intranet and Internet sources.

Systems And Methods For Controlling Information Sharing Among And Between Individuals And Groups Of Individuals

US Patent:
2013002, Jan 24, 2013
Filed:
Aug 15, 2012
Appl. No.:
13/573052
Inventors:
Jens Horstmann - Santa Clara CA, US
Matti Katajamaki - Sunnyvale CA, US
Susan Potter - Redwood City CA, US
Miroslav Wiesner - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709206
Abstract:
A conference organizer uses conference software to define a conference and to store conference information, including a list of individuals attending the conference. The software assigns each individual a personal proxy with storage space for information to be shared. Responsive to input from the individuals, the software organizes the individuals into groups, such as interest-based groups and lists of “buddies.” Messages and can then be directed between individuals or broadcast to groups buddy groups via their respective proxies. The use of proxies allows attendees to send messages to one another and to receive messages from one another without divulging their primary email addresses. The proxy storage also allows individuals to store and selectively share textual information, video information, digital pictures, and audio information.

May 23, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/864479
Inventors:
Jens Horstmann - Santa Clara CA, US
Matti Katajamaki - Sunnyvale CA, US
Saeed Zarea - San Jose CA, US
Susan Potter - Redwood City CA, US
Miroslav Charles Wiesner - San Jose CA, US
Assignee:
Jens Horstmann - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709204, 709213
Abstract:
A conference organizer uses conference software to define a conference and to store conference information on the organizer's computer system. The stored conference information includes a list of attendees, and a personal proxy mailbox for each attendee. Each attendee has a wireless device, such as a personal digital assistant (PDA). The organizer's computer system includes a wireless communication station that can communicate in wireless fashion with the wireless devices of the attendees at the conference. During the conference, an attendee uses his/her wireless device to access the conference information, select another attendee from the list of attendees, and send the selected attendee a message such that the message is stored in the personal proxy mailbox of the selected attendee. The use of personal proxy mailboxes allows attendees to send messages to one another and to receive messages from one another without divulging their primary email addresses.

International Classification:
G06F 15/16
US Classification:
709206, 709248
Abstract:
A communication server collects messages from a number of user accounts and presents them to the user from a single location. The user can set the mail server to block unwanted messages and to forward others to various receiving devices, including mobile telephones and pagers. Forwarded messages are automatically reformatted for the receiving device, while a copy of the original message is retained. The retained copy can be viewed later if the user is interested in message content that was not available to the wireless device. The user can also use the wireless device to forward the original message to another receiving device. In the case of forwarding, the saved original message and not the reformatted message is sent to the forwarding address. Replies to messages directed to the user from different message sources identify the user by message source to allow the user to maintain separate email identities.

Appl. No.:
8/662746
Inventors:
Jens U. Horstmann - Santa Clara CA
International Classification:
G06F 1500
US Classification:
345335
Abstract:
A method establishes page links between pages on the Internet. Individual sites (collections of pages) include dedicated links pages that consolidate links to other sites. The links page associated with a given site (the first site) includes an "add link" button that, when selected, allows an owner of a second site to add a link to the links page. The new link can be used to establish a link from the links page to the second site. To ensure reciprocity, the method also includes prompting the owner of the second site for a link back to a page of the first site and later checking the second site for the link back.
