Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for searching and identifying quotes in response to a query from a user. Consistent with certain embodiments, systems and methods are provided for identifying one or more subject entities associated with the query and for identifying, from a database or from search results obtained in response to the query, a set of quotes corresponding to the one or more subject entities. Further, systems and methods are provided for determining quote scores for the identified quotes based on at least one of the relationship of each quote to the one or more subject entities, the recency of each quote, and the popularity of each quote. Additionally, systems and methods are provided for organizing the identified quotes in a rank order based on the quote scores and selecting quotes based on the rank order or based on the quote scores. In addition, systems and methods are provided for transmitting information to display the selected quotes on a display device.
