SYSTEM OF PROVIDING SUGGESTIONS BASED ON ACCESSIBLE AND CONTEXTUAL INFORMATION

A system and method for offering suggestions to a user of a mobile computing device based on information relevant to the user and a context data. The mobile computing device has access to lists of data associated with the user. The mobile computing device also has a sensor for detecting data about the user's context. Based on the lists of information and the contextual data, the device generates a hypothesis as to information that may be of interest to the user. Using context data in conjunction with lists in this fashion focuses the system on information likely of interest, without requiring express user input. A search may be performed in accordance with the hypothesis. Based on the results of the search, one or more suggestions are then presented by the mobile computing device to the user. The user has the option to provide feedback input to the device resulting in an update of the suggestion.
