ABSTRACT:
Embodiments are configured to provide a summary of information associated with one or more search results. In an embodiment, a system includes a summary generator that can be configured to provide a summary of information including one or more snippets associated with a search term or search terms. The system includes a ranking component that can be used to rank snippets and the ranked snippets can be used when generating a summary that includes one or more ranked snippets. In one embodiment, the system can be configured to include one or more filters that can be used to filter snippets and the filtered snippets can be used when generating a summary. Other embodiments are available.
