Abstract

A method and system for dynamic list prioritization. Also, it relates to a method and system for communicating to the networks using mobile phones. In one example, this can be done without computer-based online user registration. The client system uses a text capable mobile phone to post a message through Short Message Service (SMS), and the message is received by the server system. The server system receives the message, along with the originating mobile phone number from the client system. The server system assigns a unique identifier to this message, and associates it to the mobile phone number of the client system. The message is translated by the server system into formats that can be accessed by other client systems, such as mobile, computers, and Personal Digital Assisstants. This message can be read and responded to by client systems (using mobile or computers) without revealing the SMS caller ID (identification).

Claims

1. A system for dynamic list prioritization, said system comprises:

a listing of one or more items;

a set of parameters;

a set of weights; and

a set of conditions,

wherein said set of conditions change said set of weights which are assigned to each of said parameters,

wherein said set of weights are changed dynamically after some time intervals, to make it harder to predict the assignment of the weights, and

wherein said listing of one or more items is ordered based on the effect of combination of said set of weights on said parameters.

2. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said parameters are related to one or more of the following:

number of keywords, any phone number mentioned, any web link mentioned, web link quality and quantity, any pictures, audio, or video, content quality and quantity, premium paid messages, category, location of the user, user rating by others, any analytics, age of the message, number of replies, and number of characters in a message.

3. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said set of weights are changed dynamically after some minimum time interval.

4. A system as recited in claim 3, wherein said minimum time interval is proportional to the number of said parameters.

5. A system as recited in claim 3, wherein said listing is rearranged after said set of weights are changed dynamically.

6. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said listing is rearranged after some time interval.

7. A system as recited in claim 3, wherein said listing is rearranged after said minimum time interval.

8. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said system is used in a search engine.

9. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said system is used in a telecommunication system.

10. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said system comprises a distributed server system, wherein one of said distributed server system acts an aggregator, in which dynamic list priority is applied to all the messages.

11. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said system is based on a weighted average.

12. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said system is based on normalized weights.

13. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein said system displays said listing based on the year, month, day, hour, and minute.

14. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein an irrelevant listing is assigned a low weight.

15. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein a range of values is searched.

16. A system as recited in claim 15, wherein said range of values is the price of an item.

17. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein a vague listing is assigned a low weight.

18. A system as recited in claim 1, wherein an emergency listing is assigned a high weight.

19. An apparatus for dynamic list prioritization, said apparatus comprises:

means for listing of one or more items;

means to store a set of parameters;

means to assign a set of weights; and

means to analyze a set of conditions,

wherein said set of conditions change said set of weights which are assigned to each of said parameters,

wherein said set of weights are changed dynamically after some time intervals, to make it harder to predict the assignment of the weights, and

wherein said listing of one or more items is ordered based on the effect of combination of said set of weights on said parameters.

20. A method for dynamic list prioritization, said method comprises the steps of:

listing of one or more items;

storing a set of parameters;

assigning a set of weights; and

analyzing a set of conditions,

wherein said set of conditions change said set of weights which are assigned to each of said parameters,

wherein said set of weights are changed dynamically after some time intervals, to make it harder to predict the assignment of the weights, and

wherein said listing of one or more items is ordered based on the effect of combination of said set of weights on said parameters.
