  • An inventive web content authentication system is developed as part of this patent application.
  • web page owners/webmasters register their web content with a centralized web content authentication company (Universal Web Content Authentication Services— UWCAS Corp— www . uwcascorp . com) and receive different levels of authentication for their web content.
  • the crux of the invention is about how web content is authenticated and how various levels of authentication are requested and displayed on the web.
  • Web page owners pay for the authentication services that UWCAS Corp offers but basic authentication will be offered free of charge to anyone who wants to receive such authentication.
  • the part of the invention developed here is about capturing the unique linguistic vocal sounds (e.g., English) of the participants in the program.
  • a new global company called 'Unique Voices of the World Corp— UVOW Corp— www . uvowcorp . com) will be established.
  • UVOW Corp will register, into an online database, the twenty vowel sounds and the twenty-four consonant sounds of the English language produced by its participants. These sounds are then used for composing new songs, for "duping" existing songs, in reading books, for identification by voice, etc., etc. just to mention a few of the applications.
  • UVOW Corp will get a management fee for managing such transactions.
  • UVOW Corp can manage a registrant's sound assets on the registrant's behalf, if such an agreement is made between the registrant and UVOW Corp. In the latter case, UVOW Corp will keep the lion share of the profit and the registrant gets a royalty fee every time the registrant's sounds get used.
  • This invention potentially enables every registrant in the world to make money from his/her unique linguistic vocal sounds online.
  • some of the suggested slogans for UVOW Corp are: 'UVOW to make yourself heard' and 'UVOW to make yourself money.'
  • Web advertisement authentication systems and methods Internet based advertisement (ad for short) will pretty much replace many of the advertisement channels in existence today in the very near future (in 5 to 10 years). Online viewing of advertisements needs to be authenticated.
  • the first version of the ad authentication system is about how online visitors get authenticated by a live person. In other words, when a web visitor to a web page clicks on an ad (or a logo, etc.), then that person is connected with a live person either on the phone or on the web using such programs as online chat or other video based interactive medium.
  • These live authentication personnel will work for an ad authentication company (Universal Web Ad Authentication Services— UWAAS Corp— www . uwaascorp . com).
  • This ad authentication company can eventually develop a second-generation version of the 'ad authentication' system, by combining the voice databases developed for UVOW Corp and the new ad authentication interface.
  • voice databases developed for UVOW Corp and the new ad authentication interface.
  • web visitors to any web pages click on ads (or ad logos) and read the content into a microphone, then their voice is detected in the databases (to be licensed from UVOW Corp) and the visitors' ad clicks are automatically authenticated.
  • This latter version will eliminate the need for hundreds and thousands of live personnel, working for Universal Web Ad Authentication Services.
  • buttons are developed as part of this invention. Some examples are discussed as part of this summary description. For example, a button named, 'PageHistory,' will be developed. This button will allow a web visitor to choose specific pages that the web visitor has browsed during a web browsing session. When you click on this button, sequentially numbered hyperlinks to these pages are displaced. By clicking on the specific number, the web visitor is taken to the web page corresponding to that number. The visitor can reset the numbering function just by clicking the 'PageHistory' button.
  • buttons ('Admin') that an owner/webmaster can log in to make web browsing more useful and customized for a specific web visitor or give him/her access to a secure version of the web pages or a specific web page.
  • the ability to manage this functionality on the client side for the web page owner than on the server side can be effective in creating a more dynamic, tailor-made, and highly interactive web browsing experience for the web visitor.
  • web browsers will be offered a button ('Visitor') for the purposes of receiving real-time instructions (e.g., passwords, etc.) from the owner/webmaster.
  • real-time instructions e.g., passwords, etc.
  • the web visitor can receive other valuable information about web site stats, reviews, and testimonials about the web page(s) without password authentication requirements.
  • Another button ('DoMore') is also disclosed that allows the web visitor to not only read web content but also manipulate it. For example, this button will allow the visitor to get synopses of the content, make numerical analyses based on the content, save their analyses and reports to their own computer hard drives.
  • Web-based expert consulting systems and methods In the explosively growing world of the internet, more and more digital information is added to the web each day and is made accessible to anyone with a computer and access to the internet. However, the complexity and relevance of the information may be beyond many individuals browsing the internet. This presents an opportunity when the person browsing the internet has questions or requires further information to solidify their thought process abopt the content dealing with a specific subject. It will be good for the person to pick up the phone or initiate an online chat with an expert, as and when required on demand.
  • These experts are referred to as web expert consultants here that work for a company called Universal Web Expert Consulting (UWEC Corp—
  • UWEC Corp will hire these experts from around the world as part- time/full-time consultants and develop a web interface (system) to connect the web visitors with the web expert consultants in real time. Depending on how seamlessly UWEC Corp can offer these consulting services, the market potential for this business is extremely high since the scope of this business model is undoubtedly global.
  • Web-based logo branding systems and methods All businesses intrinsically project an image in the market place. Whether this image is positive or negative or neutral depends on how these businesses function with respect to developing the right products and offering meaningful services that their customers can use. This image is often remembered in association with a company's logo. Also, logos can be successfully used to draw the attention of a potential customer to a company's great products and services. So logos are not just space fillers on web pages with graphics, letters, etc. A logo plays a critical role in a company's success and longevity. If people see a logo a number of times, it will most likely stick in their heads.
  • This invention is about addressing the question, "Can we build a web site that meets the above-mentioned enterprise need for building an effective company image that is all about logos?" A company called “Global Logo Mania” (www . Global-Logo-Mania . com) will be created for this purpose. This invention is all about making Global Logo Mania (GLM) a universal logo company on the web. In other words, GLM will be a company for logos similar to what social network sites offer for people about people.
  • participating grocery stores are fully connected to the web. This means that all items in these grocery stores can be viewed online in real time via web cams, etc. Shoppers will visit corresponding web sites of the grocery stores and choose the items they like and add them to their list of items to be ordered. Because most of the required technologies exist today, a web interface to order groceries online and a grocery delivery system, that will fully complement the web-based grocery shopping model, can be developed for making grocery shopping an energy efficient and time-saving endeavor.

Additionally, three (first-place, second-place, and third- place) weekly logo winners are displayed as-well (183), with their respective time counters. Also shown on this web interface is the request for 'Extended web time' box ( 184).
  • non-members can increase their assigned web time of five minutes to fifteen minutes by simply entering the request into a button provided on the web page.
  • Non- member logos are displayed for five minutes alphabetically. If the request is made before the logo's " turn for the extended web time, the logo gets the extended web time of fifteen minutes. If the request is made after the logo's turn, it will have to wait until the next web cycle to receive the privilege of the extended web time.
  • GLO Global Logo Mania
  • the web page will allow viewers, companies, and other industry experts to write reviews about companies whose logos are in the member directory. Such reviews will generate critical information for major web based search engines. Reviews about non-members are not allowed.
  • the web page will also offer web design tools (185) to web designers so the designers can develop and save their designs on the GLM server.
  • interested web designers will have to register and set up a free designer account on the GLM server. Best new logos will be selected each month and the designers of those logos will potentially win prizes. These new logo winners will be selected from the total votes received from registered logo viewers on a monthly basis.
  • GLM web interface system There will be various promotional aspects built into the GLM web interface system. For example, registered logo viewers can receive promotional materials (such as t-shirts, coffee mugs, hand bags, etc.) with the logo they have viewed or the 'Featured Logo' of the month.
  • promotional materials such as t-shirts, coffee mugs, hand bags, etc.

  • Web-based grocery shopping systems with innovative delivery methods Groceries can be ordered online and delivered to one's home without ever setting foot in grocery stores. This can be made possible by the web technology available today. The invention described here is about developing a first-generation version of the web based grocery ordering/delivery system. This is shown as a web page schematic in FIG. 7a. A company called Universal Web Ordering Service Corp (UWOS Corp - www . uwoscorp .
  • UWOS Corp will provide the required computer infrastructure and training to the participating grocery stores with respect to the web ordering/delivery system developed here as part of the invention.
  • a second-generation version of the delivery system will have a refrigerated storage unit built into the exterior walls of participating houses. These storage units can be readily developed using existing refrigeration technology and other card reader based systems for secure access to the storage units. These units are shown in FIG. 7b. These storage units will have two sections, on the left and right hand sides and each of these sections will contain a back section (200) and a front section (201) as well. The back section, on the right hand side, will have cold air for frozen grocery items and the front section, on the right hand side, will have air at room temperature. Similarly, the front and back sections, on the left hand side, will be maintained at certain temperature to store unwanted or rejected grocery items. There is a front shutter door (202) that covers the entire front side of the storage unit.
  • the exterior shutter door with access to the delivery personnel, can be opened or closed with an access card or the bar code on the grocery packages themselves (204).
  • the deliver person After opening the exterior door with the access code and putting the grocery items separated into two piles for cold air and at room temperature and placed in their respective locations (205), the deliver person will close the door by pushing a 'close' button (208).
  • the right hand side interior door will automatically open and pull the grocery packages into the back of the storage area (206) and will close that shutter door (203) back again. This way, the next delivery person will not have access to any of the previously delivered packages.
  • the delivery truck drivers will unload the groceries into the storage units, without having to see a household member to hand over the groceries. This will be analogous to how a mailman delivers mail to people's mailboxes today.
  • a Point-N-Learn system is developed with satellite based or cellular based web link up capability. This system is shown in FIG. 8.
  • this system (210) is turned on and pointed towards an object (21 1), that object's position coordinates are registered through Global Positioning System (GPS) and those coordinates are sent to the web server (213) loaded with the databases via a remote connection device (212).
  • GPS Global Positioning System
  • the user will hear the information with the headphones (214).
  • the user may interact with the database via the microphone (215) as an additional feature, for example, by using a voice activated recognition system offered by UVOW Corp, to order better resolution information, etc.
  • This will be considered a second-generation feature for the Point-N-Learn system disclosed here.
  • These databases are developed for all participating areas of interest and updated at the frequency desired. Using the coordinate information, the web server will be able to pull the correct information from the databases and send that information back to the user.
  • Point-N-Learn systems e.g., similar to binoculars, headsets, flashlights, etc.
  • the levels of data resolution desired, etc. can be adjusted as desired as well.
  • a company called Universal Web Information Services (UWIS Corp - www . uwiscorp . com) will create the databases for its client sites and update and maintain the databases periodically.
  • the databases will be created from a combination of data sources. For example, some of the data may be obtained from satellite imagery, other data might come from cameras, camcorders, etc. Clients will choose the level of detail or the data resolution to be produced for the Point-N-Learn customers.
