ABSTRACT:
A system and method for facilitating user access to remote content from a current location is presented. The invention monitors for and detects an activation gesture. The activation gesture may include an empty or nonempty selection, the nonempty selection having a source icon. Upon detecting the activation gesture, a target region is determined according to the activation gesture. Target icons capable of responding to activation gestures' selection are selected from those icons within the target region. If the activation gesture includes a nonempty selection having a source icon, only those icons within the target region and compatible with the source icon are selected. The target icons are displayed in a cluster in the proximity of the working location until a user action dismissing the cluster is detected.
