Abstract

A method includes receiving content-association input, including identification of accessed first content and an index position of a second content, and associating the accessed first content with the second content at the index position. Users accessing the second content are provided information related to the first content in response to the access of the second content. The information provided may be a link to the first content, a description of the first content, a portion of the first content, or the entire first content. Another method includes providing a user interface within an application window while the application window displays a first content and providing a second window in response to selection input via the user interface. The second window displays an indexed second content. Input may be received via the second window to create an association of the first content with the second content at an index position.
