FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an embodiment of a bookmark chain generation method according to the present invention, and FIGS. 5 to 10 are diagrams for explaining various embodiments of a bookmark chain generation method and a use method according to the present invention.

The user can use the Internet web page through various electronic devices such as the portable terminal 100 capable of wireless Internet. In addition, a web page to be visited again after using the Internet via wired / wireless can be registered using the bookmark registration function, and then can be quickly accessed.

The bookmark chain generating apparatus according to the present invention may be an electronic apparatus having a function of using the Internet as wired or wireless. Also, the bookmark chain generation method according to the present invention may be more effective in a portable terminal having a display size smaller than a monitor. Hereinafter, the case where the portable terminal 100 operates as a bookmark chain generating apparatus will be mainly described.

Referring to the drawings, an electronic device such as the portable terminal 100 searches for a predetermined web page through a web browser (S410), and receives a bookmark registration command of the user (S420) , The web page currently being accessed can be registered as a bookmark (S430)

The portable terminal 100 has a bookmark function for storing a predetermined web page when searching for a web page through the wireless Internet. The portable terminal 100 registers and stores a predetermined web page in a bookmark together with link information such as a URL (Uniform Resource Locator) address and a title, and then stores the web page again without searching for a web page or using a bookmark You can quickly access the web page you want.

In the bookmark creation and management function of the existing web browser, each bookmark exists individually and is managed by a folder / file structure similar to a computer file system.

This structure is suitable for use and management of individual bookmarks separately, but many bookmarks belong to one topic or one context and are very uncomfortable both in terms of use and management when they act like multiple paragraphs in one document .

For example, as shown in FIG. 5, a user who is interested in the car management method can check the web search result by searching the web. The user can select desired items 511 and 512 among the web search results 510 and access the corresponding web page to check more information.

The user can bookmark the useful web pages 521 and 522 as a result of the check in the search results.

Thereafter, when the user wishes to view the web page for car management again, he can access a desired web page for selecting an item included in the bookmark list by selecting a command for calling bookmark risk, for example, a favorite menu.

In FIG. 5, three web pages 531, 532, and 533 are registered and used as bookmarks in the automobile folder 530 of the bookmark list.

On the other hand, the user has to individually open each bookmark 531, 532, 533 in the bookmark (car) folder 530 to check the bookmarked web page. In addition, when bookmarks for other contents are stored in the favorites folder, the bookmark titles are often simple, and it is difficult to confirm which bookmark is about the car management until it is opened.

If the size of the display unit 151 is restricted like the portable terminal 100, if the bookmark (favorites) menu is opened, the list is not displayed on one screen, information such as title is partially displayed, There is an almost invisible inconvenience.

Accordingly, the present invention creates and uses a web page bookmark chain to solve the inconvenience caused by the management and use of the web page bookmarks that are connected in one context to a subject. A bookmark chain can automatically link bookmarks that can be linked to a single context, so that it can act as if it were a paragraph in one document.

The control unit 180 may extract the web page information by analyzing the HTML of the bookmarked web page and extract the bookmark management information of the bookmarked web page from the web browser in operation S450.

The web page information may include at least one of a keyword, a content type, and a web page name of the web page.

The bookmark management information may include at least one of the bookmark creation time, the folder name to which the bookmark belongs, and the history information of the bookmark creation time.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the method may further include storing the web page information, and may further include storing the bookmark management information.

The control unit 180 can search the bookmark and bookmark chain stored in the memory 160 for the bookmark and bookmark chain associated with the web page information and the bookmark management information.

Meanwhile, when the bookmark associated with the web page information and the bookmark management information is searched, the controller 180 may generate a bookmark chain including link information linked with the searched bookmark (S470)

If the bookmark chain associated with the web page information and the bookmark management information is found in the step of generating the bookmark chain (S470), the controller 180 adds the bookmarked web page to the retrieved bookmark chain The retrieved bookmark chain can be generated. In this case, the name of the bookmark chain generated by changing the retrieved bookmark chain can be determined based on the bookmark name added.

That is, when an associated bookmark chain exists, a new bookmark chain can be updated and created by adding a new bookmark to an existing bookmark chain instead of creating a new bookmark chain.

A feature of the present invention is to provide a bookmark chain capable of automatically linking and combining bookmark chains associated with each other by analyzing whether bookmarks added by a user have the same subject, the same context, .

The bookmark chain allows a user to conveniently record and manage bookmarks and browse a predetermined web page more easily than a conventional folder / file management method.

The use of the bookmark chain according to the present invention is advantageous in that it can automatically find and associate related bookmarks and manage the association information between bookmarks impossible in an existing folder / file structure.

Also, it is possible to move one-touch between bookmarks through a link provided by a bookmark chain without having to manually open the bookmark folder and file manually to find bookmarks on a desired topic. Accordingly, the user can conveniently open a bookmark chain and browse relevant bookmarks in a lump.

Meanwhile, the controller 180 can create a bookmark chain by searching for and linking the bookmarks associated with the bookmark added by the user, html document information of the web page, and related information of the browser.

Hereinafter, a method for generating a bookmark chain will be described in more detail.

The control unit 180 analyzes the html of the bookmarked web page and extracts information such as a keyword, a content type, a site name, and the like representative of the html of the bookmarked web page. )

In addition, the controller 180 may extract bookmark management information of the browser, such as the bookmark creation time and folder name (S450)

On the other hand, the controller 180 may generate bookmark context information using the extracted web page information and the bookmark management information, and may search bookmarks and bookmark chains using the generated bookmark context information.

The bookmark context information may be composed of content summary information, i.e., management information such as web page information, bookmark creation time and folder position, and may be used as a condition for determining whether or not the bookmark is related when searching for another bookmark.

For example, the web page information may include keyword, title, and site name information extracted from the HTML document of the web page as described below.

html <head> Information: A. <meta name = "keywords">

                   B. <title> </ title>

                   C. <meta property = "og: title">

                   D. <meta property = "og: site_name">

On the other hand, the information constituting the web page information may be different since the HTML document of the web page is changed by the producer for each web page.

The bookmark management information may include at least one of a bookmark creation time, a folder name to which the bookmark belongs, a position, and history information of the bookmark creation time.

Meanwhile, the bookmark context information is stored in the memory 160 and can be managed as a database.

The control unit 180 can search the bookmark and bookmark chain stored in the memory 160 for the bookmark and bookmark chain associated with the web page information and the bookmark management information.

Thereafter, the control unit 180 may generate a link or link information linking the newly added bookmark and the retrieved bookmark as being related to the added bookmark.

In step S460, the controller 180 searches for a bookmark and a bookmark chain associated with the web page information and the bookmark management information by using the web page information and the bookmark management information, The keyword search can be performed.
