Abstract
Presented is a method and system for navigating web sites. The method includes organizing web sites accessed by a user into a plurality of groups and generating a radio-like interface for selecting at least one web site from the web sites organized into the plurality of groups.
Claims16
A computer-implemented method of navigating web sites, the method comprising:
- organizing web sites accessed by a user into a plurality of groups;
- and
- generating an interface for selecting at least one web site from the web sites organized into the plurality of groups by generating a plurality of channel elements and a plurality of frequency elements, wherein each of the plurality of channel elements corresponds to a different group in the plurality of groups and each of the plurality of frequency elements corresponds to a different web site in the plurality of groups, wherein each of the plurality of channel elements comprises an associated set of the plurality of frequency elements, wherein the plurality of channel elements are arranged in a vertically aligned manner with respect to each other, wherein each of the plurality of frequency elements are arranged in a horizontally aligned manner with respect to each other in respective ones of the plurality of channel elements, thereby mimicking a plurality of channels and frequencies in a radio interface, and wherein the plurality of frequency elements in each of the respective ones of the plurality of channel elements are arranged in order according to a predefined criteria.
A system for navigating web sites, the system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory comprising program instructions, wherein the program instructions are executable by the processor to:
- organize web sites accessed by a user into a plurality of groups;
- and
- generate an interface for selecting at least one web site from the web sites organized into the plurality of groups, wherein the interface is generated with the plurality of groups arranged as a plurality of channel elements and the plurality of web sites arranged as a plurality of frequency elements, wherein the plurality of channel elements corresponds to a different group in the plurality of groups and each of the plurality of frequency elements corresponds to a different web site in the plurality of groups, wherein each of the plurality of channel elements comprises an associated set of the plurality of frequency elements, wherein the plurality of channel elements are arranged in a vertically aligned manner with respect to each other, wherein each of the plurality of frequency elements are arranged in a horizontally aligned manner with respect to each other in respective ones of the plurality of channel elements, thereby mimicking a plurality of channels and frequencies in a radio interface, and wherein the plurality of frequency elements in each of the respective ones of the plurality of channel elements are arranged in order according to a predefined criteria.
A non-transitory computer readable medium on which is stored a set of machine readable instructions that when executed by a processor are to perform a method of navigating web sites, said set of machine readable instructions comprising computer readable code to:
- organize web sites accessed by a user into a plurality of groups;
- and
- generate an interface for selecting at least one web site from the web sites organized into the plurality of groups by generating a plurality of channel elements and a plurality of frequency elements, wherein each of the plurality of channel elements corresponds to a different group in the plurality of groups and each of the plurality of frequency elements corresponds to a different web site in the plurality of groups, wherein each of the plurality of channel elements comprises an associated set of the plurality of frequency elements, wherein the plurality of channel elements are arranged in a vertically aligned manner with respect to each other, wherein each of the plurality of frequency elements are arranged in a horizontally aligned manner with respect to each other in respective ones of the plurality of channel elements, thereby mimicking a plurality of channels and frequencies in a radio interface, and wherein the plurality of frequency elements in each of the respective ones of the plurality of channel elements are arranged in order according to a predefined criteria.
