20080277877 | Progressive stall timer - A progressive stall timer is disclosed. For example, in one disclosed embodiment, a participant in an online turn-based social experience is provided with a time interval in which to take an action in a current turn. If the participant does not take an action in the current turn during the time interval, then the participant is provided a shortened time interval during which to take an action in a later turn. In this manner, the negative impact a stalling participant has on the experience is reduced each time the participant stalls. | 11-13-2008 |

20140223280 | FRICTION FIELD FOR FLUID MARGIN PANNING IN A WEBPAGE - A cursor in a viewable portion of a webpage, or pan region, visually encounters a friction field when the cursor enters a margin of the viewable portion. As a user moves the cursor into the margin of the viewable portion, the movement of the displayed position of the cursor is limited as if the cursor is being restricted by a friction field in the margin. Also, as the cursor enters the margin of the viewable portion of the webpage, the webpage scrolls in the opposite direction of movement of the cursor. The amount of scroll of the webpage is proportional to a distance the cursor is away from an inner edge of the margin. When a user no longer attempts to move the cursor in the margin, the cursor fluidly drifts back toward a center of the viewable portion and so that scrolling of the webpage pauses. | 08-07-2014 |

20130067116 | Synchronizing Streaming Video between Viewers over a Network - Described is a technology by which machines such as gaming (including media) systems are configured to synchronize streaming video between peers over a network, including participants communicating via voice or video chat. The video synchronization may include “full” synchronization that operates to synchronize streaming video that is currently unsynchronized video, by causing participants to stop and buffer, and resume playing from a specified position in the stream. Video synchronization also may include “fast” synchronization that operates to re-synchronize video that has begun to drift out of synchronization, such as by briefly pausing any stream that has gotten ahead of others. Also described is replicating the activation of a video transport control (e.g., pause, fast forward, rewind, skip, and the like) that occurs on one machine to other machines, such that video players behave as if there is a common remote control among the peer systems. | 03-14-2013 |

20110297656 | WELDING CONTROL - A welding device applies weld material between two work pieces such that the work pieces are connected mechanically with one another. The welding device includes a welding head and a central element. The welding head performs a welding action during transport thereof along an operating direction between the work pieces. Two primary sensor members are arranged on the central element upstream of the welding head relative to the operating direction. The sensor members register geometric properties of a spacing between the work pieces in which spacing the weld material is to be applied. Each sensor member is configured to maintain contact with a respective wall of the two work pieces adjoining the spacing while allowing variation of lateral distances between the central element and the adjoining wall. This is accomplished by the sensor members being pivotally attached to the central element via at least one pivoting axis oriented essentially perpendicular to the operating direction. | 12-08-2011 |
