Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0131416A2] A computerized method of presenting information from a variety of sources on a display device. Specifically the present invention describes a graphical user interface for organizing the simultaneous display of information from a multitude of information sources. In particular, the present invention comprises a graphical user interface which organizes content from a variety of information sources into a grid of tiles, each of which can refresh its content independently of the others. The grid functionality manages the refresh rates of the multiple information sources. The present invention is intended to operate in a plateform independent manner.

[origin: WO0131416A2] A computerized method of presenting information from a variety of sources (10-90) on a display device (110). Specifically the present invention (Fig. 2) describes a graphical user interface (126) for organizing the simultaneous display of information from a multitude of information sources (10-90). In particular, the present invention comprises a graphical user interface (126) which organizes content from a variety of information sources into a grid (1) of tiles (10-90), each of which can refresh its content independently of the others. The grid (1) functionality manages the refresh rates of the multiple information sources. The present invention is intended to operate in a plateform independent manner.
