Abstract

An intermediary server receives a resource request for a requested resource from a client computer. The intermediary server responds to the resource request by initiating an interactive dialog between the intermediary server and the client computer, where the interactive dialog identifies a desired resource ability of the requested resource. The intermediary server identifies, based on responses to the interactive dialog from the client computer, an alternative resource that best meets the desired resource ability, wherein the requested resource and the alternative resource are a same type of resource, and wherein the interactive dialog uses an interactive exchange that interprets interactive dialog responses from the client computer in order to identify the desired resource ability and the alternative resource that best meets the desired resource ability and then instructs a resource server to send the alternative resource to the client computer.
