Abstract:
1. A method, comprising: processing a user input comprising a resource identity signifier for a target resource with reference to a heuristic knowledge base utilizing a processor of a computing platform to determine a possible target resource, the heuristic knowledge base comprising an index of available resources of a plurality of resources on a network, wherein one or more of the plurality of resources are identified by one or more resource locators containing one or more registered elements specifying one or more uniform resource locators (URL), the resource identity signifier for the target resource being independent of the one or more registered elements specifying the one or more URLs; learning a social usage of the resource identity signifier from feedback gathered from a plurality of users based at least in part on previous social usage of the resource identity signifier; transmitting a resource locator corresponding to the determined possible target resource to a user computing platform at least in part in response to a determination of the possible target resource having a degree of confidence exceeding a selected threshold; and updating the heuristic knowledge base in accordance with one or more express inputs received from one or more additional users identifying additional and/or desired pairings of one or more target resources to be associated with one or more respective signifiers, wherein the feedback gathered from the plurality of users is further based at least in part on personally defined usage of the resource identity signifier.
