Abstract

A method and system for facilitating interaction between an electronic device and a plurality of content provider websites are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes receiving at a server a plurality of information portions provided from the websites, where each of the information portions is associated with a respective copy of information that is available at each of the websites. The method also includes aggregating at the server the information portions so that they are combined into an overall grouping, with the respective information portions being maintained respectively as distinct subportions within the grouping. Further, the method includes sending from the server a message for receipt by a part of the electronic device, the primary message including the grouping. The grouping is sent together with an additional copy of the information or with an indication of that information to which the overall grouping relates.
