Abstract

A graphical word processing system includes: a computing device including a display and a user input device; a user-facing application operable to be displayed on the computing device, the user-facing application including a text editing area for receiving textual user input from the user input device, the text editing area including at least a first tab and a second tab and a selectable shortcut button displayed on the computing device and selectable by the user; an artificial intelligence module for interpreting the textual user input of the first tab, retrieving content from a network based on the textual user input and a browsing history of the user on the computing device, and for displaying content based on the textual user input and retrieved content on the second tab of the user-facing application.

Claims

1. A graphical word processing system for constructing an electronic written document comprising:

a computing device including a display and a user input device;

a user-facing application operable to be displayed on the computing device, the user-facing application including

a text editing area for receiving textual user input from the user input device, the text editing area including at least a first tab and a second tab and

one or more selectable shortcut buttons displayed on the computing device and selectable by the user;

an artificial intelligence module for interpreting the textual user input of the first tab, retrieving content from a network based on the textual user input and a browsing history of the user on the computing device, and for displaying content based on the textual user input and retrieved content on the second tab of the user-facing application; and

a tile module for displaying textual input received in the text editing area of the user-facing application as movable word tiles, the word tiles arrangeable by the user on the user-facing application to create one or more sentences;

wherein the electronic written document is constructed from sentences created by the movable word tiles as arranged by the user on the user facing application.

2. The graphical word processing system of claim 1, the text editing area further including a third tab, wherein the artificial intelligence module displays hyperlinks corresponding to content retrieved by the artificial intelligence module in the third tab.

3. The graphical word processing system of claim 1, the user-facing application further including a Category Organizer including a category area displaying one or more categories selectable by the user, wherein the movable tiles may be dropped into one or more categories of the Organizer Area by the user.

4. The graphical word processing system of claim 1, wherein each of the movable tiles corresponding to words received in the text editing area includes a selectable trash button, wherein selection of the trash button moves the movable tile to a trash portion of the user-facing application.

5. The graphical word processing system of claim 1, wherein the tile module converts each word within the text editing area into separate movable tiles displayed on the user-facing application.

6. The graphical word processing system of claim 1, wherein the tile module aggregates a plurality of separate movable tiles into individual tiles having multiple words on the tiles based on user selection of the movable tiles on the user-facing application.

7. The graphical word processing system of claim 1, further comprising a trash portion for receiving discarded text.

8. A graphical word processing system for constructing an electronic written document comprising:

a computing device including a display and a user input device;

a user-facing application operable to be displayed on the computing device, the user-facing application including

a text editing area for receiving textual user input from the user input device, the text editing area including at least a first tab and a second tab and

a selectable shortcut button displayed on the computing device and selectable by the user;

an artificial intelligence module for interpreting the textual user input of the first tab, retrieving content from a network based on the textual user input and a browsing history of the user on the computing device, and for displaying content based on the textual user input and retrieved content on the second tab of the user-facing application; and

a tile module for displaying textual input received in the text editing area of the user-facing application as movable word tiles wherein the tile module converts each word within the text editing area into separate movable tiles displayed on the user-facing application, the word tiles arrangeable by the user on the user-facing application to create one or more sentences;

wherein the electronic written document is constructed from sentences created by the movable word tiles as arranged by the user on the user facing application.

9. The graphical word processing system of claim 8, wherein the tile module aggregates a plurality of separate movable tiles into individual tiles having multiple words on the tiles based on user selection of the movable tiles on the user-facing application.
