Abstract
A method, system and apparatus for enabling users to create customized user interfaces in accordance with their preferences. The user interface is structured as a node map, wherein nodes may be added to the node map in accordance with the user's needs. The nodes may be connected there-between to define relationships between the different nodes. The nodes may have an attachment, an action, an application and/or the like associated therewith. The user may perform a variety of other functions to customize, alter or expand the information depicted on their user interface.
Claims96
A method for creating a node in a node map for a user interface in a computing device, comprising:
- receiving a user instruction for initiating creation of the new node;
- receiving node information from the user;
- generating a new node with the received node information;
- and
- listing the new node in a node list.
A map for a user interface in a computing device, said map displayed on a terminal of the computing device, comprising:
- a. a first individual node and a second individual node;
- and
- b. a first node category and a second node category, said first node category comprising said first individual node therein and said second node category comprising said second individual node therein, said first individual node related to said first node category and said second individual node related to said second node category,
- wherein said first individual node is related to said second individual node, such that a user accesses information in said second individual node by beginning navigation from said first individual node.
A system for creating a node in a node map for a user interface in a computing device, comprising:
- means for receiving a user instruction for initiating creation of the new node;
- means for receiving node information from the user;
- means for generating a new node with the received node information;
- and
- means for listing the new node in a node list.
A system for creating a node in a node map for a user interface in a computing device, comprising:
- a. a memory;
- and
- b. a processing unit in communication with said memory, said processing unit configured for:
- receiving a user instruction for initiating creation of the new node;
- receiving node information from the user;
- generating a new node with the received node information;
- and
- listing the new node in a node list.
