These profiles are augmented by the information that the users input, import or access via a web application and/or associated desktop client that also monitors and captures users' primary data and secondary metadata on the data the users input, and captures various levels of indexing and or metadata on data that users are looking for. The aggregation of data may be captured in time dependent models describing the interest of users and groups of users over time.
Abstract:
A method for providing search results includes receiving incoming communications from a plurality of users, each configured to generate a user profile. Input is received from the users to set at least one preference to be stored in the user profiles and web activity is tracked from the users and stored in the profiles. The tracked web activity history from the users is analyzed in combination with the preferences stored in the corresponding profile with at least one group profile for users being generated having similar preferences stored in the profiles. At least one additional web based query is received from a user and search results are provided in response where the results are affected by the tracked web activity history from the users with stored preferences in the group profile similar to the user making the additional web based query.
