Systems and methods for a graceful push handling user interface
The present invention relates to systems and methods for the graceful removal of push feeds from a mobile electronic device. A server or the mobile electronic device may remove the push feeds automatically, without any instruction from the user, after the expiration of a predetermined amount of time.
1 . A method for the graceful handling of push feeds in a mobile electronic device comprising:
sending a push feed to a mobile electronic device;
waiting a predetermined amount of time; and
instructing the mobile electronic device to delete the push feed.
2 . The method of claim 1 further comprising sending a new push feed to the mobile electronic device.
3 . The method of claim 1 further comprising identifying the push feed as new to the user.
4 . The method of claim 1 wherein the push feeds comprises a channel.
5 . The method of claim 1 further comprising providing notification to the user as to when the push feed will be deleted.
6 . The method of claim 4 wherein the notification comprises altering the graphical look of the push feed.
7 . The method of claim 4 wherein the notification comprises applying a timestamp to the new push feed.
8 . The method of claim 1 wherein the predetermined amount of time is selected from the group consisting of thirty seconds, sixty seconds, five minutes and sixty minutes.
9 . A method for the graceful handling of push feeds in a mobile electronic device comprising:
receiving a push feed;
displaying the push feed; and
after a predetermined amount of time deleting the feed.
10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the predetermined amount of time is included with the push feed as received.
11 . The method of claim 9 further comprising receiving a new push feed.
12 . The method of claim 9 further comprising identifying the push feed as new to the user.
13 . The method of claim 9 further comprising providing notification to the user as to when the push feed will be deleted.
14 . The method of claim 13 wherein the notification comprises altering the graphical look of the push feed.
15 . The method of claim 13 wherein the notification comprises applying a timestamp to the new push feed.
16 . The method of claim 9 wherein the predetermined amount of time is selected from the group consisting of thirty seconds, sixty seconds, five minutes and sixty minutes.
17 . The method of claim 9 wherein a clock internal to the mobile electronic device determines the predetermined amount of time.
18 . A system for the graceful handling of push feeds in a mobile electronic device comprising:
a server for transmitting data comprising a first CPU and a first interface; and
a mobile electronic device comprising a second CPU and a display, wherein the mobile electronic device is configured to
receive a push feed;
display a push feed; and
after a predetermined amount of time, delete the push feed.
19 . The system of claim 18 wherein the push feed is originally generated and transmitted by the server.
20 . The system of claim 18 , wherein the predetermined amount of time is included with the push feed as received.
21 . A system for the graceful handling of push feeds in a mobile electronic device comprising:
a server for transmitting data comprising first CPU and a first interface; and
a mobile electronic device comprising a second CPU and a display for receiving data from the server, wherein the server is configured to
send a push feed;
wait a predetermined amount of time; and
instruct the mobile electronic device to delete the push feed.
