Abstract

A system reorders filters in a set of the filters that may be used to update a list of content. In response to receiving user input selecting a particular filter, the system may filter and/or reorder the content in the list of content and reorder the remaining un-selected filters. Filters that would result in a more even split of the content may be ranked higher than filters that would result in a less even split of that content. A filter that would result in selection of half of the content would be ranked higher than another filter that would result in selection of one-fourth or three-fourth of the content. The system may rank filters based on a user's historical usage. The system may apply a variety of factors to select an order for the filters by, for example, using a weighted average of scores that correspond respectively to the factors.
