Each structured data object contains retrievable user requested data stored in the data base of that unit. The networked system includes an user interface for allowing an user to enter and modify a plurality of query requests and link instructions. The networked system further includes a link generator for receiving and executing the query requests and the link instructions for generating links between the structured data object distributed among the networked processor-database units for retrieving the retrievable user requested data from the linked structured data object The link generator further includes a user profile generator for accumulating and employing the query requests and link instructions for generating a user profile filtering file. The link generator further includes an experience-based link creating unit for applying the accumulated query requests and link instructions and the user profile filtering file for generating a recommended links.
