A computer-executed technique for correcting previously received textual messages based on a later received textual message can include receiving and displaying a first textual message in a user interface. A second textual message is received and, based on this second textual message, the first textual message is analyzed to determine if it includes a correctable error. When the first textual message is determined to include an error, a language model is utilized to determine an incorrect word therein. A corrected word is programmatically determined and is used to automatically replace the incorrect word to generate a corrected first textual message. The user interface is modified such that the corrected first received textual message replaces the first received textual message.

A method and system for adjusting webpage layout are disclosed. The method includes calculating a width for displaying an image on a webpage; determining whether the image is inserted in a segment of text of the webpage; and adjusting the size of the image display based on a mobile terminal's screen width and the width for displaying the image, if the image is inserted in the segment of text of the webpage. The disclosed methods and systems adjust the images on a webpage based on the width of the image and the screen width of a mobile terminal. As such, an adjusted webpage can be viewed by scrolling up and down the display screen. In addition, a user's online experience may be further improved by adjusting the images on the webpage to be left justified and aligned with the text on the page. A user does not need to scroll horizontally (e.g., from left to right) to read the webpage including the images.

Systems and methods for automated local story generation and curation are described. In one example embodiment, a server computer receives content from client devices, and processes the content to identify content characteristics. Stories are then generated based on the characteristics of the received content, and the stories are communicated to client devices. In certain embodiments, selection at a client device of an individual piece of content within a story may further be used by the system to provide the client device with a sub-story that includes pieces of content sharing content characteristics with the characteristics of the selected image or video.

An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a rendering engine and a spacing engine. The rendering engine is to render, off-screen, a text column. The spacing engine is to adjust character spacing of the text column, to identify a loosest value of character spacing to fit the text column into an allocated width without introducing an additional line break to the text column.

Multi-user computer search system with methodology for bypassing instant indexing of documents. In some embodiments, for example, a system for bypassing instant indexing includes a token store storing a set of token for a current version of a document and a tokenizer server configured to tokenize a new version of the document and to generate a set of tokens for the new version of the document. The system further includes an instant indexer server configured to determine tokens to index the document by based on identified differences between the set of tokens for the new version of the document and the set of tokens for the current version of the document, to determine whether the new version of the document is a bypass document version or non-bypass document version, and to generate an index mutation for the new version of the document including a specification of whether the generated index mutation is a bypass index mutation or a non-bypass index mutation based on whether the new version of the document is a bypass document version or non-bypass document version. The system also includes an index mutation server configured to provide the generated index mutation to an index server, if the generated index mutation is a non-bypass index mutation, or not provide the generated index mutation to the index server, if the generated index mutation is a bypass index mutation.

Techniques for an electronic montage system are described. An apparatus may comprise a logic device arranged to execute a montage application comprising an authoring component operative to provide a presentation surface having multiple presentation tiles, receive control directives to associate content files with presentation tiles, generate tile objects for the content files based on content file types for the content files, and store the presentation surface and tile objects as a montage. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Provided are methods, devices, and computer-readable media for generating a string of characters based on a set of rules; parsing the string of characters into string of graphemes; determining one or more phonetic representations for one or more graphemes in the string of graphemes based on a first data structure; determining at least one grapheme representation for one or more of the one or more phonetic representations based on a second data structure; and constructing the phonetic representation of the string of characters based on the grapheme representation that was determined.

Methods, devices and systems are described for implementing interactive modification of spacing constraints of genealogical charts. The method includes displaying, on a display device of a computer system, a user interface for displaying one or more genealogical charts including one or more nodes. The user interface includes a horizontal slider and a vertical slider for manipulating the one or more geological charts' size. The one or more geological charts include page breaks representing a number of pages. The method further includes receiving, from an input device of the computer system, manipulation input for one or more of the vertical slider or the horizontal slider. Then, in response to receiving the manipulation input, providing real-time graphical feedback representing the manipulation in the display of the one or more genealogical charts. The real-time graphical feedback includes expanding and/or contracting the one or more genealogical charts such that the number of page for the one or more geological charts is automatically increased or decreased to accommodate the size of the one or more geological charts.

A method for segmenting text for layout on a web browser includes receiving a block of text at a client computer and defining a plurality of regular expressions, where a first regular expression in the plurality of regular expressions is used to search for a word or a word boundary. The client computer segments the block of text into a plurality of text segments, where the segmenting includes searching the block of text starting at a defined location for a first text segment that matches any of the plurality of regular expressions, adding the first text segment to the plurality of text segments, and updating the defined location to be located at the end of the first text segment within the block of text. The client computer then constructs a layout of the block of text using the plurality of text segments.

A method for entering keys in a small key pad is provided. The method comprising the steps of: providing at least a part of keyboard having a plurality of keys; and predetermining a first probability of a user striking a key among the plurality of keys. The method further uses a dictionary of selected words associated with the key pad and/or a user.
