Abstract: Systems and methods for providing a zoomable user interface are provided. Objects associated with content may be graphically presented to a user. The graphical presentation may be initially based on a first browsing mode of a plurality of browsing modes. A selection of a portion of the objects of the graphical presentation may be received. In addition, a second or successive browsing mode may be determined. The selected portion may then be mapped based on the second browsing mode. Subsequently, the selected portion may be graphically presented based on the second browsing mode to the user.

Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for providing universal profiles for networked clusters are provided. In exemplary embodiments, membership in a first cluster is established for a member. A profile for the member is then generated that comprises profile segments associated with the first cluster. Membership in a second or subsequent cluster may also be established for the member. After which, a profile extension is provided that indicates additional profile segments associated with the second or subsequent cluster. Based on the profile extension, the profile is appended.

Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for managing a plurality of group-centric networks are provided. In exemplary embodiments, a plurality of group-centric networks is established within a network cluster. Each group-centric network comprises one or more groups having a common interest. Once established, the group-centric network defines customized administrative components for the group-centric network. In exemplary embodiments, the administrative component comprises roles and relationship definitions which define what data and functionality may be provided to a user accessing a group within the group-centric network.

Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for creating organizational hierarchies in a group-centric network are provided. In exemplary embodiments, a request to establish a new group within an organization on the group-centric network is received by the group-centric network host. The group-centric network host then determines if the request if from an authorized individual, such as a leader of a home group representing the organization. If the request is not from an authorized individual, at least one message-based handshake through which one or more relationships of the new group may be activated is performed.
