Abstract
A computer-implemented system for managing an electronic signature is provided. A data collector receives one or more contact information items. A signature builder builds a graphic-based electronic signature based on at least one of the contact information items. The graphic-based electronic signature includes a set of icons. Individual icons in the set of icons are respectively associated with at least one of the contact information items. Individual icons in the set of icons are configured to initiate a communication application when one of the icons is selected in order to communication via the communication application using the contact information item associated with the selected icon.
Claims32
A computer-implemented system for managing an electronic signature comprising:
- a data collector implemented by a processor, receives one or more information items;
- a signature builder that builds a graphic-based electronic signature based on at least one of the information items, the graphic-based electronic signature includes a set of icons wherein individual icons in the set of icons are respectively associated with at least one of the contact information items;
- and
- wherein individual icons in the set of icons are configured to initiate a communication application when one of the icons is selected in order to communicate via the communication application using the information item associated with the selected icon.
A computer-implemented method for managing an electronic signature comprising:
- receiving one or more information items;
- building with a processor a graphic-based electronic signature corresponding to at least one of the information items, the graphic-based electronic signature includes a set of icons;
- associating individual icons in the set of icons with respective information items;
- and
- configuring individual icons in the set of icons to initiate a communication application when one of the icons is selected in order to communicate via the communication application using the information item associated with the selected icon.
