What are these inventions?
 
Clickstream Web Measurement
This is a highly accurate method of measuring how users interact with web sites WITHOUT breaching privacy. Clickstream employs page side tracking and first party cookies to enable web pages themselves to record what happens to them in users' browsers.
 
Other page-side tracking systems, such as Google Analytics, breach users' privacy because they require users to interact with 3rd party domains without overt consent. And only Clickstream can tell if a page is being re-loaded via the BACK button.
 
Doovle Video Index & Search
Doovle uses the textual transcript (narrative and dialogue taken from the soundtrack) to enable users to search for words and phrases that occur in any piece of video content.
 
Doovle lets viewers watch and navigate around all kinds of video content in a uniquely non-linear way by searching for words and phrases inside the content of all kinds of video and, from the search results, to play the exact scene they want to watch. Every search result can be clicked to make the video content play immediately from the relevant timing point.
 
FamilyCam Secure Video Distribution
FamilyCam.com is a secure family video storage and streaming portal. It allows its members to set up their own Web TV channels using their own home video content and to browse, search and enjoy their collections safely and securely and share their movies with friends and family.
 
The primary invention behind Familycam is a video uploader app that encodes video into a perfect web video streaming format (H.264 MP4 via FMSS3.x) BEFORE it is uploaded to the portal. No encoding servers necessary.
 
 
 
Image Steganography
 
This is the art of embedding signals covertly within seemingly innocuous digital photographs.
 
This picture contains the entire text of Henry V but that data lies hidden within the pixel colour values. To any rendering device, it's an ordinary picture but with the correct tools it is possible to extract from this image Shakespeare's entire text of Henry V.
 
I have written a white paper on this subject. If you have an academic interest in the subject, please feel free to ask me for a PDF of the paper...mlw@quincunx.com
