Patent number: 8874692Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention is a method and apparatus for organizing information in a world wide web page format. In one embodiment, information is received from a user (e.g., via a graphical user interface) and transformed into a world wide web page. The world wide web page is displayed to the user as the information is received (e.g., in substantially real time), so that the user can view the world wide web page as he or she constructs it. The invention therefore requires little to know prior programming knowledge.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2006Date of Patent: October 28, 2014Assignee: AT&T Intellectual Property II, L.P.Inventors: Barbara Laing, Aleksey Ivanov, Robert Leighty, Alice Taylor, Carey J.
