US Patent:
7975019, Jul 5, 2011
Filed:
Jul 15, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/182502
Inventors:
Nigel Green - Bellevue WA, US
Scott A. Mongrain - Seattle WA, US
Assignee:
Amazon Technologies, Inc. - Reno NV
International Classification:
G06F 15/16
G06F 15/173
G06Q 30/00
US Classification:
709217, 709218, 709219, 709226, 705 144, 705 261, 705 271
Abstract:
A page update handler, which may be loaded by a web browser as part of a web page, adds functionality for dynamically updating the web page with content supplied by a content server. The content may be related to a particular item detected on the web page by the page update handler, such as a link that matches a link signature, or a recognized keyword or phrase. The content server may operate in a different Internet domain from the server that servers the original web page, and may supply content for display on web pages of many different independent web sites. In one embodiment, an operator of a web site that is separate from the content server can enable the display of content from the content server on the site's web pages by merely adding an update handler tag to one or more corresponding HTML documents.

Filed:
Jul 15, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/182517

Abstract:
A page update handler, which may be loaded by a web browser as part of a web page, adds functionality for dynamically updating the web page with content supplied by a content server. In one embodiment, when a mouse-over event occurs with respect to a recognized item on the web page, such as a hyperlink that matches a particular link signature, the page update handler displays a corresponding overlay display object within the web page. The overlay display object displays information about or associated with the recognized item, and may provide functionality for the user to further interact with the content server. In one embodiment, an operator of a web site that is separate from the content server can enable overlay display objects within its web pages by merely adding an update handler tag to one or more corresponding HTML documents.

Filed:
Sep 6, 2007
Appl. No.:

Assignee:
Amazon Technologies, Inc. - Reno NV
International Classification:
G06Q 30/00
US Classification:
705 271, 707739, 707750, 707767
Abstract:
Tag suggestions enable a hosting entity such as a website to determine one or more tags to suggest to a user for association with a particular item within an electronic catalog. After this determination, the hosting entity may suggest the determined tags to the user. To determine these tags, the hosting entity may employ techniques to determine items related to the particular item. The hosting entity then suggests some or all of the tags associated with the related items. Additionally or alternatively, the hosting entity may determine certain metadata associated with the particular item. The entity then may suggest this metadata, or some related phrase or tag, to the user for association with the particular item. However the tag suggestions are determined, the hosting entity may rank the tag suggestions to determine which tags to present to the user or to determine an order in which to present the tags.

Criteria-Based Structured Ratings

View page
US Patent:
8122371, Feb 21, 2012
Filed:
Dec 21, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/963309
Inventors:
Thomas L. Keller - Renton WA, US
James G. Robinson - Olympia WA, US
Scott Allen Mongrain - Seattle WA, US
Oystein Hernes - Everson WA, US
Assignee:
Amazon Technologies, Inc. - Reno NV
International Classification:
G06F 3/048
US Classification:
715780, 715764, 715781
Abstract:
Criterion-based feedback allows users to provide useful information in a quick and easy to understand fashion. When information for an item is relayed to a user, the user is provided with the ability to provide feedback for any criteria relating to the item. In some embodiments, this feedback takes the form of a submission of a response to a question or statement pertaining to a criterion for the item. The user is able to create new responses if the existing responses do not adequately convey the feedback that the users wishes to submit. Further, a user can also submit entirely new questions and/or statements, along with corresponding new responses, that correspond to a criterion relating to the item. Such an approach provides flexibility for users to quickly and easily provide feedback on specific criteria that might be useful for other users viewing information for that item.
