Abstract: There is provided a computer-implemented method of generating a content recommendation interface for a user of an electronic device, the method executable by the electronic device. The content recommendation interface presents a first GUI comprising three simultaneously presented visual-interface elements disposed within the first GUI: a first interface element comprising an omnibox, a second interface element comprising at least one icon representing user-selected content, and a third interface element comprising at least one recommendation icon, the first recommendation icon associated with recommended content selected, by the recommendation server, from a plurality of potentially recommendable content items. The method further comprises, in response to an indication of a first user-interaction with the first GUI into one of a first direction and a second direction, selectively presenting a first version and a second version of a second GUI, respectively.

Abstract: There is provided a method and a system for conducting a search and presenting results. The method can be executed at a server. The method comprises receiving a search query from an electronic device associated with a user; responsive to the search query, generating a search query result set, the search query result set including a vertical search result; determining a confidence level that the vertical search result is the most relevant to the search query; responsive to the confidence level being above a pre-determined threshold, causing the electronic device to display exclusively the vertical search result.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method and a system for completing a search query. The method is executable at a server. The method comprises receiving a portion of the search query from an electronic device associated with a user; determining a query-completion suggestion for the received search query portion, the query-completion suggestion based on information searchable within a vertical search domain; determining the most suitable response to the query based on information maintained within the vertical search domain; causing the electronic device to display the user a suggest line, the suggest line including both: (i) the query-completion suggestion and (ii) representation of the most suitable response to the query.
