Culture section points - application protocol, a method for creating a culture specific user interface and corresponding computer program product

摘要

The invention discloses a cultural interface protocol application. In the preferred embodiment, the cultural interface protocol application is used on a computer system for preferably providing a culture-specific experience with a client application. The cultural interface protocol preferably comprises a user profile that defines particular cultural attributes and that is stored in the computer's memory. A protocol interface within the protocol application facilitates communication between the cultural interface protocol application and any compatible host or client application. Certain ones of the cultural attributes in the user profile are determined by an algorithm with the protocol application to communicate to the host or client application. The client application is preferably configured specifically according to the particular cultural attributes communicated from the cultural interface protocol application. Thus, the host or client application is preferably customized according to the culture of the protocol application user's actual or desired cultural makeup.
