System and method for aggregating and integrating structured content

摘要

The present invention provides a centralized system and method for accessing, organizing, personalizing, and managing structured content located in disparate structured content systems. Structured content embedded within a particular system may be organized with structured content from other structured content systems. A processing module accesses the structured content located in the structured content systems using a conduit application programming interface. The processing module uses a display application programming interface to communicate with requesting systems. Metadata regarding the structured content is stored in a repository and the structured content may be used and viewed on a plurality of requesting systems.
