Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for presenting content in response to receiving a portion of a search query. A computing device receives, over a network from a user computer, a portion of a search query submitted by a user in a search query entry area. The computing device receives, from a search suggestion module, one or more search suggestions related to the portion of the query. The computing device transmits, to the user computer, the one or more search suggestions for display in a search suggestion region, the search suggestion region displayed differently than a search results area. The computing device transmits a search suggestion of the one or more search suggestions to a rich content module. The rich content module generates rich content related to the transmitted search suggestion. The computing device transmits, to the user computer, the rich content for display in the search suggestion region.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and programming for providing search previews is disclosed. At least one input is received. At least one query suggestion is generated based on the at least one input. The at least one query suggestion is displayed in a first display area. At least one web page preview is generated based on the at least one input. The at least one web page preview is displayed in a second display area. Each web page preview is viewable and actionable.

Abstract: A system and method for search, including steps of: receiving one or more search terms; searching an index for the one or more search terms to generate search results; retrieving the search results, wherein some of the search results include web pages associated with application programs; preparing a search results page for presentation to the user, wherein said search results page comprises at least a partial listing of the search results; presenting a search tool pod located on a portion of the search results page without obscuring the search results, wherein said search tool pod includes a list of application modules for executing the application programs associated with the search results that are presented; receiving a selection of a first application module; and presenting the first application module for user interaction in an area of the search results page that is smaller than the entire search results page.

Abstract: Method, system, and programs for displaying search results are disclosed. A first page that contains a first piece of content is presented to a user. A second page that contains a second piece of content including one or more search results is generated. The second page is arranged behind the first page such that the second page is invisible to the user. A first triggering event associated with a predetermined user input is detected. In response to the first triggering event, at least part of the first page is moved in a direction from a default position for a distance to expose at least part of the second page such that the second piece of content on the second page becomes visible to the user.

Abstract: Method, system, and programs for intent-based search suggestion are disclosed. A query suggestion is determined from a plurality of query suggestions in response to a user entering a query. Annotated intent information associated with the determined query suggestion is then fetched. The annotated intent information includes one or more intents with annotation information. The determined query suggestion is presented with one or more labels to the user. Each label indicates one of the one or more intents. The one or more labels are ranked based on their corresponding intents.
