Abstract
In an information processing method a first operation is received by a user; in response to the first operation, a first application is started and the first application is displayed in a windowlet of an electronic device; a second operation is received by the user in the windowlet; the second operation is parsed, an object corresponding to the second operation is determined, a second application corresponding to the object is determined, whether the second application meets a predetermined condition is judged to generate a judgment result, and the second application is started in a windowlet when the judgment result indicates that the second application meets the predetermined condition.
