Methods and apparatus for providing graphical view of digital content
First Claim
1. A computing device, comprising:
- at least one processor; and
at least one data storage device including computer-readable instructions stored thereon, the computer-readable instructions configured to instruct the at least one processor to;
display content on an electronic display as a virtual accordion-folded sheet including a first page, a second page, and a third page with each of the first page, the second page, and the third page including a crease therethrough;
define a virtual spine behind the virtual accordion-folded sheet, the virtual spine including;
a front point that is at least as close to a user viewing the accordion-folded sheet as any other point of the virtual spine from a viewing perspective of the user; and
a pair of branches extending generally backward from the viewing perspective, and generally outwards away from each other as the pair of branches extends generally backward; and
display the virtual accordion-folded sheet as having the crease of each of the first page, the second page, and the third page coupled to the virtual spine.

Abstract
A non-transitory processor-readable medium storing code representing instructions to be executed by a processor to define a set of indicators encoding a set of content segments from the set of content segments. The processor further defines, for each content segment, a first link between that content segment and an indicator from the set of indicators, such that the first link associates a center component of the content segment to that indicator. The processor also defines, for each content segment, a second link between that content segment and an adjacent content segment within the sequence of content segments, such that the second link associates an edge component of that content segment to an edge component of the adjacent content segment. The processor also defines a presentation of the set of content segments based on the first link and the second link, for each content segment.
