SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VISUALIZING WEB PAGE QUERY RESULTS

摘要

Systems and methods for providing search results responsive to a search query are provided. A submitted search query is received from a search requester. Search results relevant to the search query are obtained from a document index. Each search result comprises (i) a source document or a reference to a source document and (ii) a static graphic representation of the source document. The static graphic representation of the source document was obtained from the source document at a time before the submitted search query was received. The static graphic representation of the source document of a first search result in the search results is displayed in a center position of a graphic output device. The static graphic representation of the source document of a second search result in the search results is displayed in an off-center position of the graphic output device. The static graphic representation of the source document of the second search result is displayed rotated about an axis of rotation that lies between the center position and the off-center position.
