Friskit has defined numerous ground-breaking innovations through its series and U.S. and international patents. Here are some of those patents:
- US Patent 6,389,467: Streaming Media Search And Continuous Playback System Of Media Resources Located By Multiple Network Addresses
Issued May 2002
- Abstract: A network enabled device receives search criteria and accesses a memory that includes a plurality of network addresses. The memory associates each address with one or more classes of information. Each address in the memory locates a media network resource. A plurality of the addresses are selected using the search criteria. The selected addresses are signaled to the network enabled device. A media playback component on the network enabled device sequentially plays back the media resources provided by at least some of the selected addresses automatically.
- US Patent 6,484,199: Streaming Media Search And Playback System For Continuous Playback Through A Network
Issued November 2002
- Abstract: A search request is received over the network to play back media that satisfies one or more search criteria. A plurality of media resources are selected by comparing the search criteria to information associated with the media resources. A set of media resources is established based on the plurality of media resources Media resources that include the set of media resources are played back through the network on a network enabled device. In response to termination of playback of a given media resource, playback of another media resource is automatically initiated.
- US Patent 6,519,648: Streaming Media Search And Continuous Playback Of Multiple Media Resources Located On A Network
Issued February 2003
- Abstract: A playback system is provided to locate and playback streaming media from network resources. The playback system includes a search module that signals a query to a network site, and receives in return a search result. The search result identifies one or more links that are selectable to open media files. A media player couples to the search module to automatically play back streaming media contained in media files located by the search result.
- US Patent 6,271,741: Streaming Media Search System
Issued April 13, 2004
- Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a method to access a web site. A plurality of links are identified using a web browser component, where the links are selectable to open a corresponding web resource of a specified data type on the web site. The plurality of links are made available to a plurality of Internet enabled devices that select one or more of the links.
- US Patent 6.725,275: Streaming Media Search And Continuous Playback Of Multiple Media Resources Located On A Network
Issued April 20, 2004
- Abstract: A playback system is provided to locate and playback streaming media from network resources. The playback system includes a search module that signals a query to a network site, and receives in return a search result. The search result identifies one or more links that are selectable to open media files. A media player couples to the search module to automatically play back streaming media contained in media files located by the search result.
- US Patent 6,735,628: Media Search And Continuous Playback Of Multiple Media Resources Distributed On A Network
Issued May 11, 2004
- Abstract: A method is provided for playing back media from a network. The method includes receiving a search criteria from a network enabled device. The method further includes accessing a database comprising a plurality of network addresses, where the database associates each address with one or more classes of information. The addresses in the database each access a media network resource. The method further includes selecting at least one address in the database using the search criteria, and signaling the selected address to the network enabled device. The method also includes controlling the network enabled device so as to automatically access and play back the media resource of the selected address.
- US Patent 7,010,537: Method And System For Visual Network Searching
Issued March 7, 2006
- Abstract: An embodiment provides for conducting searches on a network. A search request is signaled over the network to a search engine.
