METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR CHRONOLOGICAL TAG CORRELATION AND ANIMATION
First Claim
1. A system for facilitating the comprehension and awareness of electronic content dynamically changing over time through the movement of tags across defined intervals, the system comprising:
- a fetching engine that requests the content using a web service, wherein the web service receives the content in documents, and saves the documents to a time-stamped document repository;
a chronological tag assembler that selects the documents from the time-stamped document repository for the defined intervals, and creates information associated with tags within the documents in tag tables;
a tag cloud canvas that accepts the tag table information from the chronological tag assembler, determines the placement of the tags in the tag cloud canvas using the tag table information, and renders animation of the tags in the tag cloud canvas to a display device.

7. A method for facilitating the comprehension and awareness of electronic content dynamically changing over time through the movement of tags across defined intervals, comprising a fetching engine, a web service, a time-stamped document repository, a chronological tag assembler, tag tables, a tag cloud canvas, and a display device, the method comprising:
-
fetching engine requesting the content from the web service; receiving at a web server the content in documents, and saving the documents to the time-stamped document repository; selecting by the chronological tag assembler the documents from the time-stamped document repository for the defined intervals, and creating information associated with tags within the documents in the tag tables; and accepting by the tag cloud canvas the tag table information from the chronological tag assembler, determining the placement of the tags in the tag cloud canvas using the tag table information, and rendering animation of the tags in the tag cloud canvas to the display device. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)
