Abstract:
A dynamic digital montage system assists a user in creating and publishing a montage about one or more specified topics. The system receives an identification of one or more topics of interest from the user, and based on the subject information, collects data from dynamic and static data sources for display in dedicated sections of a montage. The data is presented in one of a number of predefined but editable layouts for presentation to a user. In one implementation, at least one of the montage components is associated with a dynamic data source and is updated when new data is provided by the dynamic data source. In another implementation, the data sources attached to the montage components are analyzed on a periodic basis, and based on the analysis, data source assignments and/or the montage layout is revised.
