Abstract: Concepts and technologies are described herein for collecting and displaying information. A client device executes one or more application programs for providing operations with respect to entity-related data that relates to one or more entities. The application programs analyze the entity-related data to identify one or more entities associated with the entity-related data and transmit entity information relating to the entities to a server or database. Information relating to the entity is retrieved from the server or database and is presented to a user of the client device.

Abstract: A business data system generates a user interface display showing a business data record. The business data system receives a touch gesture user input to manipulate the business data record to perform an operation, a task or a workflow within the business data system. The business data system performs the operation, task or workflow based on the touch gesture user input.

Abstract: A layout transformation system accesses application metadata that defines a plurality of different structures for displaying components of the application, based upon the particular modality of the display device. The layout transformation system then transforms a user interface display based on the application metadata and based upon the particular modality, and provides the user interface display to the display device for rendering and user interaction.

Abstract: Embodiments provide aspects of a workspace interface that includes a number of customizable business role workspaces, but are not so limited. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method provides a number of role-specific workspaces as part of an integrated business development application, each role-specific workspace including role-specific ribbon tools, gadgets, and/or tabs tailored to address particular aspects of a business or business role. In one embodiment, a number of customizable role-specific workspaces are combined with personal information management features as part of providing an integrated business management solution. Other embodiments are included and available.

Abstract: A flexible data search interface is provided. The search interface incorporates multiple tabbed display components, each of which is dedicated to user-entry of a different type of search criteria. When a search is initiated, the search is based on an amalgamation of search criteria entered into each of the multiple tabbed display components. The search interface is implemented within an application to facilitate any of a variety of functions including, but not limited to, information retrieval and task-completion.
