Abstract

One or more embodiments of the invention are directed to a system and method for instantaneously deploying packetized alert data in a one to many configuration or a many to many configuration where the data to be received by each recipient can be customized in a way that leaves a publisher with optimum control over the content or revenue generated from each deployment.

Claims

1. A computer-readable medium for displaying packetized alert data from multiple publishers encoded with computer-readable instructions configured to:

subscribe to receive packetized alert data from a first publisher;

subscribe to receive packetized alert data from a second publisher;

receive a first packetized alert data from said first publisher;

update a screen region of a display to display said first packetized alert data based on settings associated with said first publisher;

receive a second packetized alert data from said second publisher; and

update said screen region to display said second packetized alert data based on settings associated with said second publisher.

5. The computer-readable medium of claim 1, wherein said computer-readable instructions further comprise:

receive a fourth packetized alert data comprising a response request from a publishing server;

update said screen region to display said fourth packetized alert data and said response request;

process an input from a user comprising a response to said response request; and

sending a response to said response request to said publishing server based on said input.

6. The computer-readable medium of claim 1, wherein said computer-readable instructions further comprise:

receive a fifth packetized alert data comprising an update to a previously received packetized alert data; and

update said screen region to display said update to said previously received packetized alert data.

2. The computer-readable medium of claim 2, wherein said computer-readable instructions further comprise:

receive packetized alert data comprising a mobile device version of a third packetized alert data;

update said screen region to display said third packetized alert data in a mobile device message region of said screen region.

3. The computer-readable medium of claim 3, wherein said mobile device message region is configured to display text.

4. The computer-readable medium of claim 4, wherein said mobile device message region is configured to display a multi-media message, wherein said mobile device message region is configured to emulate a mobile device display.

7. In a computer system, a method for instantly deploying packetized data comprising:

obtaining subscriber profile data from a plurality of subscribers, wherein said subscriber profile data comprises content preferences and hardware specific information for a plurality of recipient computers associated with said plurality of subscribers;

storing said subscriber profile data on at least one server configured to initiate a conduit for instantaneously transporting packetized data to said plurality of recipient computers via a communication network;

registering said plurality of subscribers with at least one publishing system comprising an interface for modifying said content preferences and defining a presentation layer interface configured to display said packetized data;

processing a request to deploy packetized data associated with a publishing system;

initiating said conduit; and

deploying said packetized data from said at least one server to a set of said plurality of recipient computers based on said subscriber profile data and said publishing system, wherein said packetized data comprises a response request;

receiving at least one response to said response request from said subscribers; and

aggregating said at least one response.

8. The method of claim 7, wherein said packetized data further comprises a notification and said response request comprises an inquiry based on said notification.

9. The method of claim 7, wherein said set of said plurality of recipient computers is further determined based on a test market profile.

10. The method of claim 7, wherein said response request comprises a poll.

11. The method of claim 7, further comprising deploying follow-up packetized data to a follow-up set of plurality of recipient computers based on said at least one response.

12. The method of claim 7, further comprising modifying said deployed packetized data with at least one modification, wherein said conduit is configured to instantaneously instruct said recipient computers to display said at least one modification.

13. The method of claim 12, wherein said at least one modification is based on said at least one response.

14. The method of claim 7, wherein said conduit is secured using an encryption technology.

15. The method of claim 14, wherein said response request comprises a form requesting information.

16. The method of claim 14, wherein said response request comprises an official vote.

17. The method of claim 14, wherein said response request comprises an order form.

18. The method of claim 17, wherein said order form comprises purchase information for additional packetized data and said method further comprises:

processing a response request comprising an order from a purchasing subscriber; and

deploying said additional packetized data to a recipient computer associated with said purchasing subscriber.

19. The method of claim 14, wherein said packetized data comprises an auction notification comprising a current price, and wherein said response request comprises a request to bid based on said current price.

20. In a computer system, a method for instantly deploying packetized data comprising:

obtaining subscriber profile data from a plurality of subscribers, wherein said subscriber profile data comprises content preferences and hardware specific information for a plurality of recipient computers associated with said plurality of subscribers;

storing said subscriber profile data on at least one server configured to initiate a conduit for instantaneously transporting packetized data to said plurality of recipient computers via a communication network;

registering said plurality of subscribers with at least one publishing system comprising an interface for modifying said content preferences and defining a presentation layer interface configured to display said packetized data;

processing a request to deploy packetized data associated with a publishing system;

initiating said conduit;

deploying said packetized data from said at least one server to a set of said plurality of recipient computers based on said subscriber profile data and said publishing system, wherein said packetized data comprises a response request;

receiving at least one response to said response request from said subscribers;

aggregating said at least one response;

modifying said deployed packetized data with at least one modification, wherein said conduit is configured to instantaneously instruct said recipient computers to display said at least one modification, wherein said at least one modification is based on said at least one response.
