Patent attributes
A device and method for reusing user-specified content is provided. After generation of a query comprising parameters explicitly set by the user, the explicitly set parameters are stored in a parameter store. If a subsequent query is generated without any explicitly set parameters, the stored parameters are automatically applied to the subsequent query, and the modified query is then transmitted to an online service, such as an e-commerce site or search engine. User query preference history may be stored for use in modifying a subsequent theory. In addition, the user may navigate to specially designated content on a page, and when the content is in focus, the user may optionally copy the content for reuse in generating a further query or for publication.
