Abstract:

Relationships between content elements and an attractor may be visually displayed on a page. More specifically, the relevance of one or more characteristics of the content elements to one or more attributes of the attractor may be depicted by organizing the attractor and the content elements on a page so that a relative vector between the attractor and the content elements as arranged on the page is related (in a meaningful fashion) to said relevance. Content elements may be selected from one or more sources and/or may be included in a feed of content elements. In some cases, a characteristic of an attractor may be transmitted to a plurality of vendor systems and one or more of the vendor systems may return (or cause to be returned) a message in response thereto.
