Systems and methods are disclosed for dynamic search interfaces. In one implementation, a search query is received from a user within a content retrieval interface. The search query is processed with respect to a first content source to determine a relevance of the first content source with respect to the search query. Based on a determination that the first content source exceeds a defined relevance threshold, content from the first content source is requested and/or received. The content received from the first content source is presented within the content retrieval interface.

Systems, methods and devices for surfacing web content in an operating system shell construct are provided. A taskbar web content element size may be selected based on an amount of free space in a taskbar. First and second scored web content may be received, wherein the web content is scored based at least on the web content's relevance score to a first user account. A taskbar web content topical display category corresponding to the first web content may be selected based on the first web content having a higher score than the second web content. A web content element of the selected size and topical display category may be caused to be surfaced in the taskbar. A selection of the surfaced web content element may be received and a subset of the first web content form the first source may be caused to be surfaced in a web content pane.
