ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a system, method and computer-readable medium related to searching at least one text-based media presentation. Examples of such media include, but are not limited to, print media such as books, magazines, and newspapers. The method comprises receiving a query associated with words in a text-based media presentation and in response to the query, searching within a database organized as a plurality of content-based indexed segments associated with at least one text-based media presentation, each indexed segment further comprising text and a still image corresponding to an associated portion of the text-based media presentation. The method retrieves a plurality of indexed segments as a result of the search wherein the user may navigate forward to at least one following indexed segment and backward to at least one previous indexed segment from an indexed segment associated with the query. Media presentations organized, searched and navigated by this approach may also include movies, video and audio presentations.
