20. The system of claim 1 , wherein the message is a related article to the user requested piece of content.
21. The system of claim 1 further comprising an indexer repository that stores the extracted features.
22. The system of claim 1 , wherein the extracted features are one or more of words, phrases, concepts, dynamically extracted entities, and document classification facets from one of the user requested piece of content and the message, and wherein the tag managing unit further comprises a tagger unit that receives the features extracted from one of the piece of content and the message and supplies the tag repository with a set of tags that are derived from the extracted features.
23. The system of claim 22 , wherein the tag manager unit matches one or more messages to the user requested piece of content based on the similarity of a set of tags and selects one or more messages based on the similarity of a set of tags.
24. The system of claim 23 , wherein each message further comprises an advertisement and the user requested piece of content is a piece of content on a webpage.
25. A method for providing messages based on concepts in a piece of content using an indexer unit and a tag manager unit, the method comprising:
extracting, using the indexer unit, one or more features from one of a user requested piece of content and a message using ontology,
wherein the ontology comprises a set of synsets arranged in one or more taxonomies, a semantic network linking the synsets with typed relations, one or more facets having an identifier and classification rules to determine whether a document belongs to the facet and a declarative entity list having an entity extraction rule and a function to generate a corresponding identifier;
providing, in a tag repository, a plurality of tags, wherein each tag is associated with one of the piece of content and a message and each tag is determined from the extracted features;
