First Claim
Patent Images
1. A computer-implemented method for data processing, comprising:
- receiving a request from a user to create an active tag;
providing a configuration information template to the user in response to the request;
receiving configuration information for the active tag, wherein the configuration information is provided by the user in the configuration information template;
displaying the active tag to a plurality of users; and
upon selection of the active tag, performing an action based upon the configuration information for the active tag;
wherein the configuration information is accessible by at least one other user.

Abstract
A computer-implemented data processing system includes tag logic for permitting a user to create an active tag. The active tag is associated with an object and includes configuration information that defines an action to be performed upon selection of the active tag. The configuration information is accessible by another user. The system also includes a user interface in communication with the tag logic for displaying the active tag.
