1. A method comprising:
- causing, at least in part, display of selectable objects on a graphical user interface, wherein each of the selectable objects corresponds to data or an application accessible via the graphical user interface;
causing, at least in part, display of the selectable objects in motion travelling across the graphical user interface based on a category of the selectable object or context dependent data; and
allowing user selection and manipulation of the selectable objects displayed on the graphical user interface,wherein the user selection and manipulation includes allowing a user to select a first selectable object of the selectable objects, and remove the first selectable object from being displayed on the graphical user interface, andwherein the removed first selectable object is reduced in priority of display as compared to other selectable objects for subsequent display of the removed first selectable object.
