Object relationships and similarities based on user context
Last updated:
Abstract:
This disclosure describes, in part, systems and methods that enable users to manage, search for, share and discover objects based on a context of the object from the user's perspective. The same object may have vastly different meanings (context) to different individuals based on how they experience the object. Rather than managing objects solely based on information about the object, the implementations described allow users to specify a context for the object and manage objects based on that context. In addition, external sources may provide supplemental information about objects and/or representations of objects.
