Systems, apparatus, methods and computer-readable storage media facilitating information retrieval for a communication device

A computer-implemented method comprising:

• displaying, via a user interface (UI), indicia of messaging information on a first portion of a display region of a communication device;
• and
• displaying, via the UI, search results associated with the messaging information,
• wherein the displaying the search results is based, at least, on detecting a selection of the messaging information,
• and wherein the displaying the search results comprises displaying the search results during a time period for which the messaging information is selected, and not displaying the search results during a time period for which the messaging information is not selected.

An apparatus comprising:

• a processor;
• an information retrieval component configured to:
• display an item via a user interface (UI);
• detect a selection of the item;
• search for information associated with the item for which selection is detected, wherein searching is performed automatically based, at least, upon detecting the selection of the item;
• and
• display search results, wherein displaying is performed for a time period during which the item is selected;
• and
• a computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions that, if executed, cause the functions of the information retrieval component to be performed.
