Abstract: A system (29, 39, 59) generate s spoiled audio thumbnails representing corresponding audio content items for a user to browse, such that during audio presentation of a given thumbnail the audio presentation is spoiled by a voice over or similar, but still enables recognition of the corresponding audio content item. This can encourage users to access the original item, and avoid the original items being regenerated from the thumbnails, or being enjoyed instead of the original. This is particularly useful where the audio thumbnail has some value itself, such as for u se as a ringtone by mobile users. It can be useful for music libraries and search engines.

Abstract: At least some embodiments of this invention provide for an easy way to share mobile content found as a result of searching and/or browsing on the Internet. Aspects of t he invention provides software, systems (meaning software and hardware to run the software) or an exchange of signals with users to provide a mobile content service. Other related aspects provide methods for providing or using such a search service. According to one aspect there is provided a system to provide a search service for finding and sharing online content, the system being arranged to receive a search query from a user on a mobile device, send search results to a use s mobile device, prompt the user to select one or more items from the search results to be published, and publish the selected item or items. Publishing includes sending the selected item or items to a recipient associated with a share link configured by a user, to a users public stream of results which is visible to any user, to a use s private stream which is visible only to the user or to nominated friends and/or as an electronic greeting to another user. The system may also be arranged to provide to a user sending instructions explaining how to publish the selected search results to a third party recipient using the messaging function of the mobile device but not to send the sending instructions to the third party recipient without the sending instructions.

Abstract: A search service provides a set of search results in response to a search query from a user, and provides one or more suggested search queries, for selection by the user to generate more search results, at least one of the suggested search queries havi ng a correspondence with a corresponding subset of one or more of the search results. The set of search results are sent with an indication of the corresponding suggested search queries, for presentation to the user with a visual representation of the corr espondence. Such a visual representation can mean locating the suggested search 10 query adjacent to its corresponding search result, and can enable a user to select an appropriate further search query more quickly with a minimum of clicks, or less time for a user reviewing less relevant information or more efficient use of screenspace.

Abstract: A search engine (50, 35, 45,103) can find content items in a first corpus (6, 30), and return search results to the user as it ems ranked according to mentions in a second corpus (7, 77, 87, 30), of the respective found content items. This i ntroduces a degree of independence or separation between the scope and type of the information for ranking and the scope and type of the content items used for responding to the search query. The second corpus can be limited to human moderated discussion site, to provide a more reliable measure of how topical is the item. The first corpus can be limited to mobile web pages. The ranking can also involve a count of mentions in plain text referri ng to the respective found content items, or be according to a social distance between the user and another user, to whom the respective content item is related.

Abstract translation: 搜索引擎（50,35,45,103）可以在第一语料库（6,30）中找到内容项，并且根据第二语料库（7,77,87,30）中提及的排序将搜索结果返回给用户 ），各自发现的内容项目。 这引起了用于排序的信息的范围和类型之间的一定程度的独立性或分离，以及用于响应搜索查询的内容项的范围和类型。 第二个语料库可以限于人的主持人的讨论场所，提供一个更可靠的措施。 第一个语料库可以限于移动网页。 该排名还可以涉及引用各自找到的内容项目的纯文本的提及，或者根据用户与另一用户之间的社交距离，各个内容项目与之相关联。

Abstract: A search engine (50, 35, 60, 63, 103) interact s (17) with the user while they are accessing (7) an existing online conte nt item to enable the user to create a mobile web version of at least a portion of that existing online content item. The mobile version is stored (37, 63) and indexed (35, 709) as a user created search result, retrievable by the search engine in response to a search query (47). This can produce better results than automated conversion, and thus improve mobile search. The interaction can involve constraining a size and text format of the mobile web version so it can reasonably be viewed on a screen of a han d held mobile device.

Abstract translation: 搜索引擎（50,35,60,63,103）在用户访问（7）现有的在线对象项目时与用户交互（17），以使用户能够创建至少一部分的移动网页版本 的现有在线内容项目。 移动版本作为用户创建的搜索结果存储（37,63）并索引（35,709），由搜索引擎响应于搜索查询（47）检索。 这可以产生比自动转换更好的结果，从而改善移动搜索。 交互可能涉及限制移动网页版本的大小和文本格式，以便可以在手持移动设备的屏幕上合理地查看。

Abstract: A query server (50) provides a mobile search service, by fetching search results corresponding to the search query (180), preparing (200) a package (261) containing more than one page defined by a mark up language, and sending the package to a mobile device (10), across a wireless network (20). A browser (15) running on the mobile device presents the pages. A user can browse the results with a conventional browser quickly without having to wait for each page to be downloaded over the network, and without having to download and run a custom application. Having page boundaries in the search results, rather than having all the results in a single page, can reduce laborious scrolling, reduce the number of clicks needed to find an item of interest, or enable more items to be sent and browsed.

Abstract: A query server of a mobile search engine system for searching content items accessible online, is arranged to send at least a first screenview of search results (63) to a browser of a mobile device (10), and send instructions (69, 74) in a scripting language to the browser for a background process to fetch further search results to the mobile device for presentation later. The further search results can then be viewed as desired without the need for a further round trip delay across the wireless network. The user can be presented with a simpler navigation model. The first screenview can be sent in the form of a page formatting template, and results data. The formatting information can be reused for other results, to reduce formatting overhead in the downloads. The instructions can also be used for showing information while waiting for downloads, or downloading information during entry of search queries.

Abstract translation: 用于搜索在线可访问的内容的移动搜索引擎系统的查询服务器被安排为将搜索结果（63）的至少第一屏幕视图发送到移动设备（10）的浏览器，并发送指令（69,74） 以浏览器的脚本语言进行后台处理，以便将更多的搜索结果提取到移动设备以供稍后呈现。 然后可以根据需要将进一步的搜索结果视为无需跨越无线网络的进一步的往返延迟。 用户可以看到更简单的导航模型。 第一个屏幕视图可以以页面格式化模板和结果数据的形式发送。 格式化信息可以重用于其他结果，以减少下载中的格式化开销。 这些说明也可用于在等待下载时显示信息，或在搜索查询输入期间下载信息。
