Systems and Methods for Organizing the Display of Messages

摘要

A method of processing messages executes at a computing device having one or more processors and memory. The memory stores one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors. Upon identification of a message subset in the plurality of messages pertaining to an event of a first event type or a first entity, an action associated with the message subset is executed thereby obtaining content from a data source distinct from the messages. A graphic compilation is formatted for display in the user in-box of a messaging application. A first portion of the compilation comprises the distinct data source content, a second portion of the compilation lists event items associated with the event or first entity extracted from the message subset, and a third portion of the compilation lists a plurality of objects, each of which is a synopsis of a message in the message subset.

1. A method comprising:
at a computing device having one or more processors, a display and memory storing one or more programs for execution by the one or more processors: analyzing a plurality of messages, addressed to a user, to determine whether a first subset of messages in the plurality of messages pertains to an event of a first event type or pertains to a first entity, wherein, upon identification of the first subset of messages in the plurality of messages pertaining to the event of the first event type or to the first entity:
executing an action associated with the first subset of messages thereby obtaining content from a first data source that is distinct from the plurality of messages and that is associated with the event of the first event type or the first entity;extracting a plurality of event items associated with the event of the first event type or the first entity from the first subset of messages; andformatting for display in the in-box of a messaging application associated with the user a single graphic compilation that represents the event of the first event type or the first entity, wherein a first discrete portion of the single graphic compilation comprises the content from the first data source, a second discrete portion of the single graphic compilation comprises a listing of the event items in the plurality of event items, and a third discrete portion of the single graphic compilation comprises a listing of a plurality of objects, wherein each object in the plurality of objects is a synopsis of a respective message in the first subset of messages.
