A virtual audience binning system and method are described. The system and method dynamically labels a group with information derived from its current participants and possibly their conversations through data mining. Then, new audience would use this contextual information to decide their relevance and interest with the groups. Furthermore, using the system, the quality of virtual binning increases with number of participants that solves the problem of size so that it is a solution that's built to work at scale. The virtual audience binning may be used with an online presentation system that generates and displays webcasts and virtual events to the audience members.

A method and system of providing a content guide that identifies a spatial relationship between the elements in the content guide is described. A controller receives electronic program guide data. The received electronic program guide data is parsed to identify a plurality of programs listed in the electronic program guide and data corresponding to at least one program description attribute for the identified programs. A relationship is determined between each identified program based on the at least one program description attribute. At least one cluster is generated and includes at least one of the plurality of identified programs based on the determined relationship. A user interface display processor generates a user interface display image representing a clustered content guide and including the at least one generated cluster enabling the user to view the relationship of the plurality of programs.
