"Income from settlement and patent licensing
During the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we reached a settlement agreement in the patent infringement action against Fry’s Electronics, Inc. As part of the settlement agreement, we received a one-time patent license fee payment of $700,000 related to prior infringement of our patent."

But this $700,000 will never standing alone – take a look at the speech of the CEO as the settlement was published, some weeks ago.

”We have identified hundreds of websites and applications that we believe infringe upon this patent and believe there are likely thousands more. We have set a clear course to begin the process of licensing this patent and expect to continue to report the results of these monetization efforts with greater frequency. Overall, we currently believe that a conservative estimate of potential future licensing fees that could be generated from this patent is $100 million.”

"Imagine 10 years ago, leaving the airport at 2 AM in a new city with no contacts and no plans. The idea that you could use your phone to find and book a nearby hotel ns. The idea that you could use your phone to find and book a nearby hotel (based on ratings and reviews), request and pay for a ride (and get an arrival estimate), and make breakfast plans – all while messaging friends across the country – was thought to be incredible. “Blue sky” thinking, they called it.

And yet, now it’s all here. It’s amazing, but also completely normal. Marketing is different. SEO is certainly different. But in many ways it’s still the same. Like we outlined in our new definition of SEO, it’s still about Solving Problems, Engaging Audiences, and Optimizing Everything.

The new “blue sky” thinking in 2014 is about the Internet of Things—the shift to assigning every single thing an IP address and connecting it to the Internet.
But it’s going to get even crazier in the next 10 years. And just like the shift from desktop to mobile, the Internet of Things is going to mean huge challenges and opportunities for marketers – and specifically for SEOs."

Journalist Sues SEC to Get Naked Short Selling Files

Lawsuit Filed in Chicago Seeks to Tear Down SEC's Veil of Secrecy

CHICAGO, IL, May 29, 2014 (Marketwired via COMTEX) -- A lawsuit has been filed under the Freedom of Information Act against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to obtain the agency's investigative files relating to more than a dozen aborted investigations and cases involving naked short selling. The complaint was filed on behalf of Mark Mitchell, an investigative journalist who publishes on deepcapture, a website that offers in-depth reports on the extent to which naked short selling pervades the US capital markets.

According to the complaint, naked short selling has flourished over the past decade because of regulatory loopholes designed by Wall Street and embedded into law by the SEC. Although the SEC created a regulation in 2005 -- Regulation SHO -- that was supposed to stop the practice, Mitchell claims the SEC's Enforcement Division rarely enforced the regulation.

Here’s the scoop. With mobile’s ever-increasing influence on the shopping experience, there are three vital questions consumers care about when they’re searching for products from their mobile devices:

1. Is it carried near me? Consumers want to know if nearby retail locations sell the product they're interested in.

2. Is it available in store? Consumers want to know if the product they want to buy today is available in a nearby store.

3. How much does it cost? Consumers want pricing information on products.
