1. A method for taking data from one format to any of a variety of interface dependent formats, comprising:
- retrieving computer-executable instructions from computer memory;
executing the computer-executable instructions on at least one computer processing unit, thereby causing computer hardware to perform operations comprising;
obtaining data from a network of computers;
creating a first data file with the obtained data in a searchable first format by performing operations comprising;
applying a first set of rules comprising term substitution rules to the obtained data; and
applying a second set of rules comprising term rearrangement rules to the obtained data, wherein said first data file is in a transformed, rearranged and semantically structured format according to the first format; and
generating grammatical phrases from the first data file according to a canonical structure, the generated grammatical phrases being in a second format associated with a specific user interface.
