1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, using a computing device, a search query relating to a particular period of time and a topic;
identifying, using the computing device, content including a plurality of content items by executing the search query, wherein the plurality of content items include a first content item;
clustering the plurality of content items into a set of groups of content items based on a date associated with each content item;
ranking the set of groups of content items;
generating, using the computing device, a representation of the content by identifying a subset of groups of content items based on the rankings and a number of groups that are allowed to display on available space of a graphical user interface, representing a group in the subset as a line along a dimension of time in the graphical user interface, assigning a content item in the subset of groups an individual marker, and plotting, in the graphical user interface, the content items in the group as a sequence of different markers on the line representing the group;
receiving, using the computing device, a user input via the graphical user interface in which a user selects a marker corresponding to the first content item; and
responsive to the user input, generating, using the computing device, a scrapbook including the first content item for display on the graphical user interface in which the first content item is rendered as one or more content images.

Abstract
A system graphically plots articles. The system executes one or more search queries to search stored articles and receives results of the executed one or more search queries, where the results identify selected articles of the stored articles. The system further designates a graphical marker for each of the selected articles and plots each of the graphical markers on a graphical display.

9. A system comprising:
-
a memory; and one or more processors coupled to the memory, the one or more processors configured to; receive a search query relating to a particular period of time and a topic; identify content including a plurality of content items by executing the search query, wherein the plurality of content items include a first content item; cluster the plurality of content items into a set of groups of content items based on a date associated with each content item; rank the set of groups of content items; generate a representation of the content by identifying a subset of groups of content items based on the rankings and a number of groups that are allowed to display on available space of a graphical user interface, representing a group in the subset as a line along a dimension of time in the graphical user interface, assigning a content item in the subset of groups an individual marker, and plotting, in the graphical user interface, the content items in the group as a sequence of different markers on the line representing the group; receive a user input via the graphical user interface in which a user selects a marker corresponding to the first content item; and responsive to the user input, generate a scrapbook including the first content item for display on the graphical user interface in which the first content item is rendered as one or more content images. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions, the instructions which, when executed by a processor, causes the processor to:
-
receive a search query relating to a particular period of time and a topic; identify content including a plurality of content items by executing the search query, wherein the plurality of content items include a first content item; cluster the plurality of content items into a set of groups of content items based on a date associated with each content item; rank the set of groups of content items; generate a representation of the content by identifying a subset of groups of content items based on the rankings and a number of groups that are allowed to display on available space of a graphical user interface, representing a group in the subset as a line along a dimension of time in the graphical user interface, assigning a content item in the subset of groups an individual marker, and plotting, in the graphical user interface, the content items in the group as a sequence of different markers on the line representing the group; receive a user input via the graphical user interface in which a user selects a marker corresponding to the first content item; and responsive to the user input, generate a scrapbook including the first content item for display on the graphical user interface in which the first content item is rendered as one or more content images. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
