ABSTRACT:
Mechanisms and techniques provide a system for accessing documents using a graphical user interface. The system can be employed in a web browser like software application. In operation, the system accesses document properties for a document. The document properties can indicate a size of the document, an age of the document, and a time associated with the document. The system can render a document selection display that provides a document identifier associated with the document. The document identifier can be render within a correlation framework that provides a visual correlation between values of document properties such as the size of the document, the age of the document, and a retrieval time associated with the document. The system can receive a user document selection associated with the document identifier indicating that a user desires to obtain the document associated with the document identifier. The system can then retrieving and display the document associated with the document identifier on the graphical user interface.
