Abstract:
While creating a document in a document editing application, a user may wish to locate more information on a particular topic to add more detail to the document. For example, a user begins creating an outline of topics for a research paper. Functionality can be implemented in a document editing application to dynamically perform searches on determined keywords, and to automatically associate search results with those keywords. In addition, searches are refined based on document context, and results can be categorized based on prior consumption of the information contained in each result. This allows a user to locate results best pertaining to topics in the document while being able to retrieve resources that have been useful in the past. Automatically performing searches and associating search results with text in a document gives a user instant access to relevant information which allows the user to spend less time researching.
