Abstract

System and method for presenting search results. Search results may be mixed and/or prioritized based on one or more criteria. Search results may be mixed and/or prioritized based on user profile data, preferred advertiser/merchant rankings or a combination thereof. Search results may presented to a viewer on a display device simultaneously along with broadcast and/or streaming content. The search results may be 'pushed' to a client-side device and presented along with related broadcast content. Alternatively, the search results may be based on one or more user-provided search criteria.
