  • Publication number: 20070255701
    Abstract: A computer system and method for allowing a user to request quantitative, qualitative, and predictive analysis of a growing information set over time is provided. The user accesses the engine over a computer network, such as the Internet, from a client computer. Examples of client computers used to access the engine include desktop/laptop personal computers, Internet-enabled cell phones, personal digital assistants (PDAs), and others which may be apparent to one of skill in the art. The user submits a text based search query corresponding to information the user is interested in along with a date range over which information should be collected and tracked. The engine then receives the request from the user and begins periodically counting and analyzing identified resources (e.g. web pages, RSS feeds, advertisements, etc.) in the growing information set over time. The results of the search are then analyzed, formatted, and displayed to the user in a graphical form on the client computer.
