Abstract
A gesture-based search interface is provided on a client device. A concept interface is displayed within the search interface, the concept interface including a plurality of selected concept tabs. A content interface is also displayed within the search interface, the content interface configured to, in response to a selection of a concept tab, display content associated with a concept represented by the selected concept tab. A gesture input is received at the client device, for instance a touch input received at a touch-screen of the client device. A concept input mechanism is presented in response to the gesture input, and an additional concept tab is presented within the concept interface in response to receiving a concept via the concept input mechanism. The content interface displays content associated with the received concept when the additional concept tab is selected.
