1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- outputting multi-dimensional graphical information for display in a touch screen;
receiving, from a user, a two point touch input that comprises the user concurrently (a) touching a first location and a second location on the touch screen and (b) while continuing to touch the touch screen, executing a movement to shorten a distance between the first location and the second location that is defined by a new first location and a new second location, wherein the two point touch input comprises a pair of finger contacts on the touch screen;
determining, based on the executed movement, that the two point touch input is directed to compressing the graphical information; and
in response to the determination that the executed movement of the two point touch input is directed to compressing the graphical information, dynamically modifying the multi-dimensional graphical information to depict visible graphical fold marks that move concurrently with the executed movement of the two point touch input; and
outputting, for display between the new first location and the new second location, a portion of the multi-dimensional graphical information with the visible graphical fold marks that graphically depict a folded portion that consists of a first graphical fold mark at the first new location, a second graphical fold mark at the second new location, and a third single fold mark that is visually creased into or out of the display of the touch screen.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes generating code for displaying a two-dimensional media programming schedule grid, receiving a command to compress the grid at a first location along a first dimension, and generating code for displaying the grid with visible graphical fold marks defining a fold area near the first location along the first dimension.

10. A computer-implemented system for generating information, comprising:
-
a computing device; an interface running on the computing device to receive requests for web-based content; a programming database storing information about web-based content; and a grid generator configured to produce a representation, in a touch screen on the computing device, of a page having a folded area at a location, the folded area corresponding to hidden web-based content and including visible graphical fold marks that are graphically depicted as a portion of web-based content hidden within, a folded portion, wherein the location of the folded area is determined based on a received two point touch user input that comprises a user concurrently (a) touching a first location and a second location on the touch screen and (b) while continuing to touch the touch screen, executing a movement to shorten a distance between the first location and the second location that is defined by a new first location and a new second location, wherein the two point touch input comprises a pair of finger contacts on the touch screen, wherein the folded portion consists of a first graphical fold mark at the first new location, a second graphical fold mark at the second new location, and a third single fold mark that is visually creased into or out of the display of the touch screen; wherein the location of the folded area is dynamically modified such that the folded portion consisting of the first graphical fold mark, the second graphical fold mark, and the third single fold mark move concurrently with the executed movement of the two point touch. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 20)

13. A computer-readable device having instructions encoded thereon, which, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
-
outputting multi-dimensional graphical information for display in a touch screen; receiving, from a user, a two point touch input that comprises the user concurrently (a) touching a first location and a second location on the touch screen and (b) while continuing to touch the touch screen, executing a movement to shorten a distance between the first location and the second location that is defined by a new first location and a new second location, wherein the two point touch input comprises a pair of finger contacts on the touch screen; determining, based on the executed movement, that the two point touch input is directed to compressing the graphical information; and in response to the determination that the executed movement of the two point touch input is directed to compressing the graphical information, dynamically modifying the multi-dimensional graphical information to depict visible graphical fold marks that move concurrently with the executed movement of the two point touch input; and outputting, for display between the new first location and the new second location, a portion of the multi-dimensional graphical information with the visible graphical fold marks that graphically depict a folded portion that consists of a first graphical fold mark at the first new location, a second graphical fold mark at the second new location, and a third single fold mark that is visually creased into or out of the display of the touch screen. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 21)
