Abstract

Method and system for media navigation. The description hierarchy is accessed. The description hierarchy includes at least one category list. One or more media descriptions are accessed for a plurality of media items. Multiple media items are accessible from multiple sources. One or more media descriptions are mapped to at least one category list. Navigation is processed through a user interface to allow selection of multiple media items from multiple sources.

Claims (27)

1 . A website building system (WBS), the WBS comprising:

at least one processor; and

a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, are configured to provide:

a pool of content items to be displayed on a website being built;

a set of views which can be used to display said content items, a view being a template for a section of a web page of said website;

at least two linking components to display items obtained from a collection of said content items through their associated view;

wherein a first of said at least two linking components is a tag cloud linking component to display tags derived from said collection of said content items; and

a linking component module to inter-connect said tag cloud linking component and a second linking component, said linking component module to further select content items of the same collection for said second linking component according to a user-selection of tags from said tag cloud linking component for display in said second linking component.

2 . The WBS according to claim 1 and further comprising a tag cloud connection manager to provide filtering by query for said user-selection of tags to determine content items for said display in said second linking component.

3 . The WBS according to claim 1 , wherein user-selection of tags comprises at least two tags.

4 . The WBS according to claim 1 , wherein said linking component module displays a single mini-page at a time, containing a single content item from said pool of content items.

5 . The WBS according to claim 1 , wherein said linking component module animates a transition between browsed content items.

6 . The WBS according to claim 1 , wherein said linking component module displays, concurrently, a gallery of content items.

7 . The WBS according to claim 1 and further comprising an aggregator field connection module to inter-connect between two linking components based on an aggregation function which calculates an aggregated value based on content items in one of said two linking components.

8 . The WBS according to claim 1 , wherein said pool of content items contains at least one item collection updateable via at least one of: a collection updating Application Programming Interface (API), a collection updating web service, an RSS feed, and an interface for collection updating based on external data source.

9 . A method for a website building system (WBS), the method comprising:

storing a pool of content items to be displayed on a website being built, a set of views which can be used to display said content items, a view being a template for a section of a web page of said website and at least two linking components to display items obtained from a collection of said content items through its their associated view;

wherein a first of said at least two linking components is a tag cloud linking component to display tags derived from said collection of said content items;

inter connecting said tag cloud linking component and a second linking component, and

selecting content items of the same collection for said second linking component according to a user-selection of tags from said tag cloud linking component for display in said second linking component.

10 . The method according to claim 9 and further comprising providing filtering by query for said user-selection of tags to determine content items for said display in said second linking component.

11 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein said user-selection of tags comprises at least two tags.

12 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein said connecting and said selecting displays a single mini-page at a time, containing a single content item from said pool of content items.

13 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein said connecting and said selecting animates a transition between browsed content items.

14 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein said connecting and said selecting displays concurrently, a gallery of content items.

15 . The method according to claim 9 and further comprising inter-connecting between two linking components according to an aggregation function which calculates an aggregated value based on content items in one of said two linking components.

16 . The method according to claim 9 , wherein said pool of content items contains at least one item collection updateable via at least one of: a collection updating Application Programming Interface (API), a collection updating web service, an RSS feed, and an interface for collection updating based on external data source.
