Abstract

Electronic device configured to display a feed including a plurality of entries based upon selected parameters is provided. The electronic device includes: a touch-sensitive display and a processor. The processor is configured to execute instructions stored on a non-transitory medium. The instructions include: acquiring at least a portion of a feed and the feed being associated with parameters; determining a current feed based on at least one active parameter; presenting the current feed and the at least one active parameter; determining that a request for a modified next feed is requested based on an input received at the electronic device; and generating the modified next feed based on the input from the operator and one or more preferences, which are determined based on operator interaction with the electronic device.

Claims

1. An electronic device configured to display at least one feed comprising a plurality of entries based upon selected parameters, the electronic device comprising:

a touch-sensitive display; and

a processor coupled to the touch-sensitive display, the processor configured to execute instructions stored on a non-transitory medium, the instructions including;

acquiring at least a portion of the at least one feed comprising a plurality of entries and each of the plurality of entries being associated with one or more parameters, wherein the at least one feed comprises a current feed;

determining the current feed based on at least one active parameter;

presenting the current feed and the at least one active parameter;

determining that a request for a second feed is requested based on an input received at the electronic device; and

generating the second feed based on the input from an operator and one or more preferences, which are determined based on operator interaction with the electronic device.

2. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the touch-sensitive display comprises one of a capacitance-sensitive display, a pressure-sensitive display, or a resistive-sensitive display.

3. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the at least one active parameter corresponding to the current feed are configured to be bookmarked.

4. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the instructions further comprise displaying a parameter bar including the at least one active parameter, wherein at least one entry parameter corresponding to a currently presented entry is configured to be added to the parameter bar and incorporated as an active parameter.

5. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the instructions further comprise creating a merged parameter based upon two or more active parameters.

6. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the instructions further comprise removing at least one of the active parameters based upon a tree structure thereof or a folder structure thereof.

7. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the instructions further comprise:

accessing attributes of the plurality of entries;

adjusting interest in the plurality of entries based on the attributes and the at least one active parameter, wherein the attributes comprise at least one of likes, comments, time spent, and at least one entry parameter.

8. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the plurality of entries comprises at least one of a text, a picture, or an illustration.

9. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the second feed is based on at least one of the attributes of the plurality of entries, the one or more preferences, and the at least one active parameter.

10. The electronic device as recited in claim 1, wherein the instructions further comprise:

automatically moving to a next entry in a feed upon lapse of a predetermined amount of time or upon receipt of a vertical scroll command.

11. A method for manipulating and presenting at least one feed comprising a plurality of entries, the method comprising:

acquiring, at an electronic device, at least a portion of the at least one feed and the at least one feed being associated with one or more parameters, wherein the feed comprises a current feed;

determining, at the electronic device, the current feed based on at least one active parameter;

presenting, at the electronic device, the current feed and the at least one active parameter;

determining, at the electronic device, that a request for a modified next feed is requested based on an input received at the electronic device; and

generating, at the electronic device, the modified next feed based on the input from an operator and one or more preferences, which are determined based on operator interaction with the electronic device.

12. The method of claim 11, wherein the input comprises a swipe right to present the modified next feed and a swipe left to present a previous feed.

13. The method of claim 11, further comprising displaying a parameter bar including the at least one active parameter, wherein at least one entry parameter corresponding to a currently presented entry is configured to be added to the parameter bar and incorporated as an active parameter.

14. The method of claim 11, further comprising removing at least one of the active parameters based upon a tree structure thereof or a folder structure thereof.

15. The method of claim 11, further comprising creating a merged parameter based upon two or more active parameters.

16. The method of claim 11, further comprising:

accessing, at the electronic device, attributes of the plurality of entries;

adjusting, at the electronic device, a preference of the plurality of entries based on the attributes and the at least one active parameter, wherein the attributes comprise at least one of likes, comments, time spent, and at least one entry parameter.

17. The method of claim 11, wherein the plurality of entries comprises at least one of a text, a picture, or an illustration.

18. The method of claim 11, wherein the modified next feed is based on at least one of attributes of the plurality of entries, the one or more preferences, and the at least one active parameter.

19. The method of claim 11, wherein the at least one active parameter corresponding to the current feed are configured to be bookmarked.

20. The method of claim 11, wherein the one or more parameters have a relationship, wherein the relationship is at least one of a tree structure, a folder structure, a correlated structure, or a combination thereof.
