Abstract
A computerized information retrieval system is provided wherein a user can highlight relevant information, and otherwise identify and mark documents of interest (with or without annotations) for storage in a separate data structure. The stored documents can be documents located on the Internet, for example, but can also include documents located within the user'"'"'s computer, or any other suitable storage device. Searches can then be conducted on the documents collected within the data structure preferably utilizing a permission-based access system. As such, a user can establish a data structure of relevant documents which can be searched by the user or other authorized users. A more efficient search can then be conducted by the authorized users.
