Abstract

The various implementations described herein include methods, devices, and systems for obtaining and presenting personal and public search results. In one aspect, a method includes: (1) receiving a search query from a user; (2) extracting terms from the search query; (3) determining whether relevant notes exist within a personal database of the user by comparing the extracted terms to stored notes of the user within the personal database; (4) obtaining public search results for the search query; (5) obtaining search results information by analyzing the public search results; (6) determining whether additional relevant notes exist by comparing the search results information to the stored notes of the user; (7) preparing note information for the relevant notes; and (8) concurrently presenting at least a subset of the prepared note information and at least a subset of the public search results to the user.
