Abstract: Techniques to organize information on a computing device using movable objects are described. A computer system may include a display operative to present a graphical user interface with a pointer to select one or more movable objects and position the movable objects at various target positions on the graphical user interface, an input device operative to receive selected movable objects and user movement to position the selected movable objects at a target position on the graphical user interface, and an object position component operative to anchor the selected movable objects at the target position using an anchor element to form a group of anchored objects, and arrange the group of anchored objects in a visual pattern relative to the anchor element. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
