A method of graphically displaying a result set according to the qualitative attributes of the result set is presented. A database stores a plurality of data items, each item identifying a content item stored on a network accessible data storage device. Queries (1004) are executed within the database to collect a set of data items, each data item associated with a plurality of qualitative attributes (1006) which each represent a quality of the content item identified by the data item. A coordinate graph (1026) is generated on each end users display device to display representations of the data items. The graphical display uses the spatial relationships (1016) among the data item representations to represent relationships among the data items based on two or more or their associated qualitative attributes. |
