    Abstract: A computing system is described that can update a query on behalf of a user. In some embodiments, the user's internet search history can be stored and processed by a server to identify one or more user interest queries. For example, queries that are specific enough to trigger the display of an inline result can be identified as a user interest query. The server can maintain a profile for the user that includes the user interest queries. Later on, the user's context can be received by the server. This can include the user's current location and/or the local time at that location. User interest queries determined to be relevant to the user's context can be updated, and the results can be automatically provided to the user. The user can thus be provided with relevant, updated information without having to manually repeat a past query.
