Abstract: While interacting with a messaging interface, keywords or other search criteria are automatically identified and used to perform a search. Search results and sponsored links (or advertisements) are displayed to the user within the messaging interface. To alleviate privacy concerns, this process will not be performed unless the user has explicitly opted-in to the search feature. In another embodiment, the user can highlight keywords in an outbound or inbound message to trigger a search without leaving the messaging interface. In another embodiment, the user can input a search keyword or phrase to trigger a search without leaving the messaging interface.

Abstract: A computer-implemented implicit querying system comprises a scanning component that scans content of a document. An analysis component analyzes the scanned content and outputs a query based at least in part upon the analysis and frequency of use information associated with the query. The system can further comprise a weighting component that provides weights to text within the document based at least in part upon location of text within the document. The query can then be output to a user based at least in part upon the provided weights.
