Abstract: Systems and methods for rendering an annotation graphic user interface (GUI) that encompasses external information related to a book term in a structured frame. An ebook includes pre-selected terms embedded with hyperlinks directing to an article contained by an external information source. Upon a user interaction with such a pre-selected term, raw information from the one or more articles is accessed and fed to a wireframe. The raw information is mapped to respective sections of the wireframe based on the field identifications attached to different segments of the raw information. As a result, an annotation GUI including the external information can be displayed in a consistent and orderly format.

Abstract: A system and method for a graphical user interface including a multimedia container. The method includes accessing, within a mobile device, a first data store corresponding to a multimedia container and accessing a second data store. The multimedia container comprises a first object and the multimedia container is operable to comprise one or more applications, widgets, and pieces of content. The second data store comprises data corresponding to a first electronic book. The method further includes displaying a first image corresponding to the first object, where the first image comprises a first book cover image corresponding to the first electronic book. The first image further comprises a first statistic corresponding to the first electronic book and the first statistic is related to access of the first electronic book.

Abstract: Examples described herein enable a user to organize and manage e-books on a computing device that utilizes a network-based e-book service. According to some examples, a user e-book collection can be organized so that it can be displayed when archived, as well as in accordance with user-defined lists.

Abstract: A given page of an e-book is displayed when an input is detected that is sustained for an amount of time that exceeds a threshold. After the amount of time exceeding the threshold, the pages of the e-book are transitioned by clusters or chapters. The transitioning by clusters or chapters can be sustained for some duration that is determined by, for example, the duration of time during which the input is sustained.

Abstract: Methods and systems for managing profiles for electronic content. The methods and systems may involve profiles for a plurality of electronic content items. If a user interaction with an electronic content item of the plurality of electronic content items meets an event definition, the user interaction may be identified as an event associated with the electronic content and recorded in the profile.

Abstract: A system and method for providing an annotation summary for key terms in an ebook. An ebook includes pre-selected terms embedded with hyperlinks directing to one or more articles contained by one or more external information sources. Raw information from the one or more articles can be accessed and mapped to respective sections of a wireframe based on the field identifications attached to different segments of the raw information, thereby resulting in an annotation GUI. An annotation summary GUI that encompasses an aggregation of visual objects corresponding to the annotated terms in a book chapter can be presented in response to a user request. A user can select a visual object from the annotation summary GUI to open an annotation GUI for the corresponding term.

Abstract: Systems and methods of managing a profile of a user of at least one device having access to electronic content. The systems and methods may involve receiving a user identifier for a user of at least one device configured to access electronic content; storing a profile of the user in a memory, where the profile of the user comprises the user identifier; if a user activity meets at least one event definition, identifying the user activity as an event; receiving data associated with the event; and recording at least a portion of the data associated with the event in the profile of the user.
