Abstract
One embodiment provides a system of exchanging information between at least two parties over a network. The system includes a chat room generator module, executed by one or more processors, to receive a comparison result between an existing first key word search from a first party and a subsequent second key word search from a second party via a network, and to generate a new chat room embedded into a search result web page associated with the second party, when the comparison result indicates no substantial similarity between the first key word search and the second key word search.
Claims18
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a chat room generator module, executed by the one or more processors, to receive a comparison result between an existing first key word search from a first party and a subsequent second key word search from a second party via a network, and to generate a new chat room embedded into a search result web page associated with the second party, when the comparison result indicates no substantial similarity between the first key word search and the second key word search.
A system comprising:
- one or more processors;
- a memory storing instructions executed by the one or more processors to generate a graphical user interface (GUI) of a search result web page, wherein when no substantial similarity is found between an existing first key word search entered by a first party and a subsequent second key word search entered by a second party, a new chat room associated with the second key word search is presented in the GUI.
A method of exchanging information over a network, the method comprising:
- prompting a first party to enter a first key word search;
- prompting a subsequent second party to enter a second key word search;
- and
- if no substantial similarity is found between the first key word search and the second key word search, creating a new chat room associated with the second party and based on the second key word search.
A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions, which when implemented by one or more processors, perform the following operations:
- prompting a first party to enter a first key word search;
- prompting a subsequent second party to enter a second key word search;
- and
- if no substantial similarity is found between the first key word search and the second key word search, creating a new chat room associated with the second party and based on the second key word search.
