Systems and methods for formless information technology and social support mechanics

A computer-implemented method including executing instructions stored on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the method comprising:

• receiving input from a user in a text input box and the input includes text and/or an action indicator;
• displaying results and/or action selection buttons in a response area in response to the input from the text input box;
• receiving the input from the text input box as a user types each character into the text input box;
• in response to receiving the text input from the text input box, performing a search and presenting results to the search in the response area input;
• in response to receiving additional text input from the text input box, performing the search and presenting updated results to the search in the response area;
• and
• in response to receiving text and an action indicator from the text input box, causing an action corresponding to the action indicator to be performed and causing a change to the user interface corresponding to the action.

A computer program product tangibly embodied on a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium and including executable code that, when executed, is configured to cause at least one processor to:

• receive input from a user in a text input box and the input includes text and/or an action indicator;
• display results and/or action selection buttons in a response area in response to the input from the text input box;
• receive the input from the text input box as a user types each character into the text input box;
• in response to receiving the text input from the text input box, perform a search and present results to the search in the response area input is received into the text input box;
• in response to receiving additional text input from the text input box, perform the search and present updated results to the search in the response area;
• and
• in response to receiving text and an action indicator from the text input box, cause an action corresponding to the action indicator to be performed and cause a change to the user interface corresponding to the action.
