Interactive Visualization of Multiple Software Functionality Content Items
First Claim
1. A method of providing a visualization of electronic content items, comprising:
- receiving a plurality of electronic content items;
displaying the plurality of content items on a computer-generated visualization surface in a sequential order across the visualization surface such that each of the plurality of content items is displayed adjacent to another content item in a row of content items extending from one side of the visualization surface to another side of the visualization surface;
wherein, displaying the plurality of content items on the computer-generated visualization surface in a sequential order includes displaying the plurality of content items on the computer-generated visualization surface in a sequential order according to a prescribed ordering attribute associated with each of the plurality of content items;
displaying on the visualization surface an ordered navigation interface for providing navigation of the display of the plurality of content items; and
enabling navigation of the displayed plurality of content items by actuation of the ordered navigation interface.

Abstract
Interactive visualization of multiple software functionality content items is provided. A variety of content items may be associated with each other according to one or more association attributes. A visualization presentation of one or more of the content items may be displayed in a visualization interface. Organization of content items may be made in association with a visualization ordering based on one or more logical attributes. An ordered navigation interface component may be provided to allow navigation of the displayed content items in a moving visualization such that a focused on content item may be displayed in a main or primary display position. Users may interact with each content item displayed in the visualization interface to include providing edits, comments, feedback, and the like.
