1. A system implemented on a machine that effectuates in situ search for active note taking, comprising:
- a component that receives a gesture from an input device, recognizes the gesture as belonging to a set of previously persisted gestures, associates a persistable and embeddable object with scribed terms identified by the gesture, and based on the gesture instantiates a search facility to return results using terms identified by the gesture, the results confederated with the embeddable object.

Abstract
A system and method that facilitates and effectuates in situ search for active note taking. The system and method includes receiving gestures from a stylus and a tablet associated with the system. Upon recognizing the gesture as belonging to a set of known and recognized gestures, the system creates an embeddable object, initiates a search with terms indicated by the gesture, associates the search results with the created object and inserts the object in close proximity with the terms that instigated the search.

16. A machine implemented method for effectuating in situ search for active note taking, comprising:
-
receiving and recognizing a gesture from an input device; generating an object and associating the object with search results from a search automatically initiated with scribed terms indicated by the gesture; and inserting the object in close proximity to the scribed terms. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)

20. A system that facilitates in situ search for active note taking, comprising:
-
means for receiving and recognizing a gesture from an input means; means for creating an object and associating the object with search results from a search automatically initiated with scribed terms indicated by the gesture as parameters; and means for inserting the object in close proximity to the scribed terms on the input means.
