20150012512 | MULTI-DIMENSIONAL SEARCH - Example methods and systems are directed to providing multi-dimensional search results. A source (e.g., a closed captioning stream) may provide a series of keywords. The series of keywords may be used to generate a series of searches. The results from the searches may be presented as part of a user interface in a grid. For example, one row may be presented for each keyword, with the row for the keyword containing the results from searching using that keyword. Alternatively, one column may be presented for each keyword, with the column for the keyword containing the results from searching using that keyword. The series of keywords may be generated once. Alternatively, new keywords may be periodically added to the series of keywords, causing the grid to be updated. Old keywords and their corresponding search results may periodically be removed from the grid. | 01-08-2015 |
20150026714 | SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF SHARING VIDEO EXPERIENCES - A system and method of sharing video experiences are described. A request may be received from a first device to view video content being captured by a second device.
