Abstract
Disclosed are methods, circuits, apparatuses and systems for facilitating access to online content, including personalized content. A content access peripheral (CAP) may be provided, such that the CAP may be operated in conjunction with a host computing platform (e.g. host device) in order to facilitate and/or expedite access to online content residing/stored on a computer server connected to the Internet or to another distributed data network. The CAP may initially be associated with specific content(s) residing/stored on the computer server connected to the Internet or to another distributed data network by a CAP to content correlator.
Claims24
An apparatus for correlating a Content Access Peripheral (CAP) to Online Content, said apparatus comprising:
- CAP interface circuitry adapted to interface with a CAP;
- a transmit module adapted to transmit to a server associated with a first identifier stored on a Non Volatile Memory (NVM) portion of an interfaced CAP one or more parameters about content to be associated with the interfaced CAP;
- and
- a CAP writing module adapted to write as a second identifier at least one online access parameter generated by the server, wherein the at least one online access parameter is usable for access of content to be associated with the interfaced CAP.
An apparatus for correlating a Content Access Peripheral (CAP) to Online Content, said apparatus comprising:
- a CAP interface circuitry adapted to interface with a CAP;
- a CAP reading module adapted to read a second identifier stored on a Non Volatile Memory (NVM) portion of an interfaced CAP;
- and
- a transmit module adapted to transmit to a server, associated with a first identifier stored on a Non Volatile Memory (NVM) portion of the interfaced CAP, the read second identifier and one or more parameters about content to be associated with the interfaced CAP.
A method for correlating a Content Access Peripheral (CAP) to Online Content comprising:
- interfacing with a CAP;
- transmitting to a server associated with a first identifier stored on a Non Volatile Memory (NVM) portion of the interfaced CAP, one or more parameters about content to be associated with the interfaced CAP;
- and
- writing as a second identifier at least one online access parameter generated by the server, wherein the at least one access parameter is usable for access of content to be associated with the interfaced CAP.
A method for correlating a Content Access Peripheral (CAP) to Online Content comprising:
- interfacing with a CAP;
- reading a second identifier stored on a Non Volatile Memory (NVM) portion of the interfaced CAP;
- and
- transmitting to a server, associated with a first identifier stored on a Non Volatile Memory (NVM) portion of the interfaced CAP, the read second identifier and one or more parameters about content to be associated with the interfaced CAP.
A Content Access Peripheral (CAP) comprising:
- a Non Volatile Memory (NVM), wherein data stored on said NVM comprises at least:
- (1) a first identifier associated with a server, and (2) a second identifier associated with online content;
- a host device interface circuitry;
- and
- a control logic adapted to initiate signaling to an interfaced host device, through the interface circuitry, and to (1) launch a web-browser, (2) direct/point the web-browser to the server as associated by the first identifier, and (3) cause the web-browser to transmit the second identifier to the server.
