Abstract
A system for presenting targeted search results to a mobile communication facility, the system configured to perform the steps of (a) receiving information relating to a viewing history of television content including a plurality of episodes from a series viewed by a user; (b) receiving from the mobile communication facility a search request containing a word; (c) determining that the word is more contextually relevant to the series than search results unrelated to the series, wherein the determination is based on the received viewing history of television content; and (d) transmitting to the mobile communication facility information corresponding to a viewing source for one or more episodes of the series not yet viewed by the user, wherein display of the information corresponding to the viewing source is prioritized over display of the search results unrelated to the series.
