Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer readable medium generate a webpage using keywords identified from user input and user email communications. The keywords are identified, ranked, and transmitted to a server where a search engine uses one or more of the keywords to identify items of interest such as articles or videos. A web page is generated using selected items of interest or links to the items of interest which may then be displayed to a user as the user's homepage.
Claims16
A computer implemented method for generating a webpage, the method comprising:
- receiving, at a server, keywords automatically identified at a user device, the keywords based on input captured using a keystroke logger and content of email communications associated with a user of the user device, the keywords ranked according to occurrence in the input captured using the keystroke logger and the email communications associated with the user of the user device;
- associating a date and time stamp with each of the keywords;
- ranking a particular keyword lower based on a user indication specifying how long the particular keyword should be used in generating items of interest before the particular keyword is ranked lower;
- identifying items of interest based on the keywords;
- and
- generating a webpage including information related to an item of interest.

A server for generating a webpage comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory to store computer program instructions, the computer program instructions when executed on the processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving, at a server, keywords automatically identified at a user device, the keywords based on input captured using a keystroke logger and content of email communications associated with a user of the user device, the keywords ranked according to occurrence in the input captured using the keystroke logger and email communications associated with the user of the user device;
- associating a date and time stamp with each of the keywords;
- ranking a particular keyword lower based on a user indication specifying how long the particular keyword should be used in generating items of interest before the particular keyword is ranked lower;
