Abstract
In embodiments of the present invention improved capabilities are described for providing a user with a convenient and intuitive user interface for performing tasks within projects, wherein the tasks may be related to content objects; for organizing content objects within projects, between projects, and with respect to one another; and for organizing projects with respect to one another.
Claims7
A method comprising:
- associating a user with a plurality of workspaces;
- organizing content objects into a visual representation of a plurality of workspaces wherein each of the workspaces includes a focus area, a side slot area, an access facility area, and an episodic workspace area;
- disposing at least two of the workspaces linearly in the visual representation;
- and
- selecting a user determined viewpoint of at least one of the workspaces to provide the user a 3D visualization of the workspace to the user.

A method comprising:
- associating a user with a plurality of workspaces;
- organizing content objects into a visual representation of a plurality of workspaces wherein each of the workspaces includes a focus area, a side slot area, an access facility area, and an episodic workspace area in which a user can interact with one or more content objects;
- and
- enforcing an action grammar for actions associated with the workspace, whereby movement of content objects within the workspace occurs only in response to an action from the user.
1 more element
A method for allowing a user to interact with one or more resources of a computer system, comprising:
- associating a user with a plurality of workspaces;
- organizing content objects into a visual representation of a plurality of workspaces wherein each of the workspaces includes a focus area, a side slot area, an access facility area, and an episodic workspace area in which the user can interact with one or more data content objects;
- viewing the content objects from a viewpoint of at least one of the workspaces to provide the user a 3D visualization of the content objects;
- enabling a change of viewpoint within the visual representation of the plurality of workspaces;
- and
- presenting the change in viewpoint from one workspace to another workspace to the user in a manner that corresponds to a movement in the physical world.
