responsive to said second user interaction, displaying a list of a plurality of multimedia containers, wherein each of said multimedia containers is configured to comprise a plurality of media types;

receiving an indication identifying a selected multimedia container from said plurality of multimedia containers;

determining an image corresponding to said piece of content;

displaying an indication that said piece of content has been added to said selected one of said plurality of multimedia containers;

receiving a third user interaction with said selected multimedia container indicating that said text of the application is being accessed; and

responsive to said third user interaction, displaying said text of the application via the application.

11. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer executable instruction that, if executed by a computer system cause the computer system to perform a method comprising:

rendering a graphical user interface (GUI) for presenting a piece of content on the computer system using an application program configured to execute said piece of content, wherein said GUI comprises a visual object, and wherein the visual object includes at least one of an image in a web browser, a book in a book application, and text of an application;

receiving a first user interaction with said visual object, wherein said user interaction prompts a dialog box to be displayed at the GUI, wherein said dialog box includes content adding options and content sharing options;

receiving a second user interaction with said dialog box indicating that said piece of content being presented is to be added to a subsequently identified multimedia container;

responsive to said second user interaction, displaying an option to create a multimedia container;

receiving an indication to create said multimedia container, wherein said multimedia container comprises a plurality of media types;

displaying an option to select a label of said multimedia container;

receiving an indication of a selected label of said multimedia container;

determining an image corresponding to said piece of content;

storing said selected label of said new multimedia container and said image into a datastore corresponding to said multimedia container;

receiving a third user interaction with said multimedia container indicating that said text of the application is being accessed; and

responsive to said third user interaction, displaying said text of the application via the application.

12. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium as described in claim 11 , further comprising:

displaying a list of a plurality of multimedia containers.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium as described in claim 12 , wherein said list of said plurality of multimedia containers is in a hierarchical format.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium as described in claim 11 , wherein said determining of said image corresponding to said piece of content comprises accessing a book cover image.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium as described in claim 11 , wherein said determining of said image corresponding to said piece of content comprises accessing a frame of a video.

16. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium as described in claim 11 , wherein said determining of said image corresponding to said piece of content comprises determining a rendering of a website.

17. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium as described in claim 16 , wherein said image comprises an indicator of a rendering operation to be performed on said piece of content.

18. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium as described in claim 11 , wherein said mobile device is a tablet.

19. A system comprising:

a processor; and

a memory coupled to said processor and comprising instructions executable by said processor to:

render a graphical user interface (GUI) for presenting a piece of content using an application program configured to execute said piece of content, wherein said GUI comprises a visual object, and wherein the visual object includes at least one of an image in a web browser, a book in a book application, and text of an application;

receive a first indication from said visual object of said GUI, wherein said first indication prompts a dialog box including content adding options and content sharing options to be displayed at the GUI, and a second indication from said dialog box of said GUI indicates that said piece of content being presented is to be added to a subsequently identified multimedia container;

display a list of a plurality of multimedia containers upon receiving said second indication;

determine an image corresponding to said piece of content;

receive a third indication identifying a selected multimedia container;

update a datastore corresponding to said selected multimedia;

receive a user interaction with said selected multimedia container indicating that said text of the application is being accessed; and

responsive to said third user interaction, displaying said text of the application via the application.

20. The system as described in claim 19 , wherein said list of said plurality of multimedia containers is in a hierarchical format corresponding to a hierarchy of said plurality of multimedia containers.

21. The system as described in claim 19 , wherein said instructions are further executable by said processor to access a book cover image when said piece of content is a book.
