摘要

computer-implemented method for initiating an action on a mobile computing device responsive to receiving text data, computer-implemented method for generating alternative search terms, computer-implemented method for modifying a search database and storage medium read by A computer system and method are disclosed to a search manager included in a mobile communication device. The search manager receives search text and a selection from one or more data sources and determines whether the selected data source includes data matching or similar to the received search text. The search manager can dynamically modify a search database by identifying data sources to search as data is received from a data source. Additionally, the search manager may communicate received search text to one or more applications stored by the mobile communication device, allowing an application to initiate an action using the search text. The search manager may also receive data from external sources identifying alternate search terms based on the search text received.
