Systems and methods are disclosed for displaying available or recommended electronic multimedia content to a user, including electronic media content on the Internet. According to one implementation, a method is provided that includes receiving a request from a user, the request specifying electronic media content desired by the user; analyzing an indexed web history of a plurality of other users, based on the request for desired content; and selecting and sorting a subset of available content groups, based on the request for desired content and the indexed web history. The method also includes selecting and sorting, for each selected and sorted content group, a subset of available content; providing instructions to display, to a user, the selected and sorted content groups along a first axis of a two-dimensional grid; and further providing instructions to display, to the user, the selected available content for each content group along a second axis of the two-dimensional grid.

Systems and methods for organizing and displaying electronic media content

A conversation model is generated based on a conversation between a plurality of participants. Conversation text associated with the conversation is retrieved. A plurality of conversation model components are identified within the conversation text. A correlation score is determined for each pair of conversation model components representing a measure of relatedness between the pair of conversation model components. Extrapolated conversation model components are identified based on the plurality of conversation model components and the determined correlation scores. The conversation model components, the additional conversation model components, and the correlation scores are then stored as a conversation model.

Real-time conversation model generation

Contextual content is provided to a first conversation participant via a client device of the first conversation participant. Communication information associated with a conversation is received via the first client device interface. Context information associated with the conversation is retrieved from the received communication information. One or more concepts associated with the conversation are identified based on the context information. Content is selected for presenting on the client device based on the identified concepts. The selected content is then presented to the first conversation participant in a second client device interface.

Collaborative communication system with real-time anticipatory computing

Data is asynchronously provided to a participant of a conversation. A temporal model is maintained for each of a plurality of client devices associated with the conversation. A temporal model describes a state of an associated client device. Data for sending to a client device is identified based on conversation context information describing a context of a conversation participant associated with the client device. A determination of whether to send the identified data to the client device is made based on the temporal model associated with the client device. The temporal model associated with the client device is updated based on the determination.

Asynchronous communication system architecture

A gesture-based search interface is provided on a client device. A concept interface is displayed within the search interface, the concept interface including a plurality of selected concept tabs. A content interface is also displayed within the search interface, the content interface configured to, in response to a selection of a concept tab, display content associated with a concept represented by the selected concept tab. A gesture input is received at the client device, for instance a touch input received at a touch-screen of the client device. A concept input mechanism is presented in response to the gesture input, and an additional concept tab is presented within the concept interface in response to receiving a concept via the concept input mechanism. The content interface displays content associated with the received concept when the additional concept tab is selected.

Gesture-based search interface

Conversation information is provided to a conversation participant. Audio data is received a client device associated with a conversation participant. The client device maintains a buffer of received audio data, for instance audio data received in a previous interval of time. A recall request is received by the client device for information associated with the buffered audio data. The buffered audio data is analyzed responsive to the recall request to identify the requested information. The identified information is then presented at the client device.

Audio recall during voice conversations

A user interface (UI) is provided on a client device to a user. The UI includes a concept bar and a content window. The concept bar includes a plurality of concept tabs associated with concepts currently relevant to a collaborative communication session involving the user and other participants. The concept tabs are configured to enable interaction with the concept tabs by the user. The content window is presented separately from the concept bar, and includes content relevant to the collaborative communication session based on the concept tabs presented by the concept bar. The content presented by the content window is modified in response to interaction by the user with the concept tabs.
