    Abstract: A system, method and computer program product are provided for organizing patents utilizing a computer-implemented system. An identifier is initially determined, after which a notes field is displayed for receiving manually entered notes, such that the manually entered notes are stored in association with the identifier. Further, the manually selection of a file is permitted. Such manually selected file is then stored in association with the identifier. Still yet, a plurality of patents are associated with the identifier. The manually entered notes, the file, and the patents are thus accessible by subsequent selection of the identifier.

    Abstract: An interface is provided for data networking. Included is a network browser window associated with a network browser for displaying content associated with uniform resource locators (URLs) during network browsing. Also displayed is a plurality of identifiers adjacent to or separate from the window in which the content is displayed. In use, a user is allowed to pre-select at least one of the identifiers. Moreover, after the pre-selection, content associated with at least one URL displayed during use of the network browser is correlated with the pre-selected identifier.
