First data associated with a search may be accessed. Second data may be accessed from a database using the first data, where the second data may be associated with at least one sentiment of the first data. The second data may include at least one score, at least one classification, and at least one degree, some combination thereof, etc. Third data may be generated, based on the second data, for performing at least one operation associated with the search results. The at least one operation may include filtering the search results, ranking the search results, displaying an image associated with the at least one sentiment, some combination thereof, etc. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method of processing data, said method comprising: accessing first data associated with a search, wherein said search is configured to generate search results comprising at least one document; accessing, using said first data, second data from a database, wherein said second data is associated with at least one sentiment of said first data, and wherein said sentiment can comprise positive, negative or neutral, wherein said second data is selected from a group consisting of at least one score, at least one category associated with said at least one sentiment, at least one degree, and at least one classification; and generating, based on said second data, third data for performing at least one operation associated with said search results, wherein said first data is selected from a group consisting of: at least a portion of a query used for said search to generate said search results; and at least one command associated with said search, wherein the third data for performing at least one operation associated with said search results is configured for performing said at least one operation using said search results, wherein said first data comprises information associated with said search results, and wherein said accessing said second data further comprises indexing said database using said first data to retrieve said second data and accessing, using said first data, other data from at least one other database, and wherein said generating further comprises generating said third data based on said second data and said other data, wherein said at least one operation is selected from a group consisting of a filtering of said search results, a ranking of said search results, and displaying an image associated with said at least one sentiment. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein said image is selected from a group consisting of a background of a webpage associated with said search results, a background of a webpage associated with at least one search result of said search results, at least one icon associated with at least one search result of said search results, and formatting of text associated with at least one search result of said search results. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein said at least one document is selected from a group consisting of at least one webpage, at least one electronic document, at least one electronic file, and advertising content. ### Claim 4 A non-transitory computer-readable medium having computer-readable program code embodied therein for causing a computer system to perform a method of processing data, said method comprising: accessing first data associated with a search, wherein said search is configured to generate search results comprising at least one document; accessing, using said first data, second data from a database, wherein said second data is associated with at least one sentiment of said first data, wherein said sentiment can comprise positive, negative or neutral, and wherein said second data is selected from a group consisting of at least one score, at least one category associated with said at least one sentiment, at least one degree, and at least one classification; and generating, based on said second data, third data for performing at least one operation associated with said search results, wherein said first data is selected from a group consisting of: at least a portion of a query used for said search to generate said search results; and at least one command associated with said search, wherein the third data for performing at least one operation associated with said search results is configured for performing said at least one operation using said search results, wherein said first data comprises information associated with said search results, and wherein said accessing said second data further comprises indexing said database using said first data to retrieve said second data and accessing, using said first data, other data from at least one other database, and wherein said generating further comprises generating said third data based on said second data and said other data, wherein said at least one operation is selected from a group consisting of a filtering of said search results, a ranking of said search results, and displaying an image associated with said at least one sentiment. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 4, wherein said image is selected from a group consisting of a background of a webpage associated with said search results, a background of a webpage associated with at least one search result of said search results, at least one icon associated with at least one search result of said search results, and formatting of text associated with at least one search result of said search results. ### Claim 6 (depends on 4) The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 4, wherein said at least one document is selected from a group consisting of at least one webpage, at least one electronic document, at least one electronic file, and advertising content. ### Claim 7 A system comprising a processor and a memory, wherein said memory comprises instructions that when executed by said processor implement a method of processing data, said method comprising: accessing first data associated with a search, wherein said search is configured to generate search results comprising at least one document; accessing, using said first data, second data from a database, wherein said second data is associated with at least one sentiment of said first data, wherein said sentiment can comprise positive, negative or neutral, wherein said second data is selected from a group consisting of at least one score, at least one category associated with said at least one sentiment, at least one degree, and at least one classification; and generating, based on said second data, third data for performing at least one operation associated with said search results, and wherein said first data is selected from a group consisting of: at least a portion of a query used for said search to generate said search results; and at least one command associated with said search, wherein the third data for performing at least one operation associated with said search results is configured for performing said at least one operation using said search results, wherein said first data comprises information associated with said search results, and wherein said accessing said second data further comprises indexing said database using said first data to retrieve said second data and accessing, using said first data, other data from at least one other database, and wherein said generating further comprises generating said third data based on said second data and said other data, wherein said at least one operation is selected from a group consisting of a filtering of said search results, a ranking of said search results, and displaying an image associated with said at least one sentiment. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The system of claim 7, wherein said image is selected from a group consisting of a background of a webpage associated with said search results, a background of a webpage associated with at least one search result of said search results, at least one icon associated with at least one search result of said search results, and formatting of text associated with at least one search result of said search results. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The system of claim 7, wherein said at least one document is selected from a group consisting of at least one webpage, at least one electronic document, at least one electronic file, and advertising content.
