Abstract:
1. A digital content management system shell browser defined by computer-executable instructions stored on one or more computer-readable storage media, said digital content management system shell browser navigable by a user to manage a plurality of data items, said digital content management system shell browser comprising: a. an items pane control listing a plurality of data items selectable by the user, wherein every data item comprises a pair of distinct classificatory categories in addition to digital content, and b. wherein said plurality of data items are stored in, and retrieved from, a computer system database, or, from one, or more, networked database servers; c. wherein said pair of distinct classificatory categories represents two potential values for filtering said data items; d. a first treeview control navigable by the user to identify a primary, and discrete, set of root-level categories selectable by the user, and e. a second treeview control navigable by the user to identify a secondary, and discrete, set of root-level categories selectable by the user, and f. wherein the first treeview control's root-level categories nested, secondary categories are comprised by, and map directly, to the second treeview control's, root-level, categories, and; g. wherein the second treeview control's, root-level categories, nested, secondary categories are comprised by, and map directly to, the first treeview control's root-level categories, and; h. wherein the first treeview control's root-level categories nested, secondary categories act as a synchronizing filter upon the second treeview control to dynamically display the corresponding, identical, root-level category value to display any, and all, potential, nested, secondary categories, and; i. wherein the second treeview control's, root-level, categories nested, secondary categories act as a synchronizing filter upon the first treeview control to dynamically display the corresponding identical, root-level, category value to display any, and all, potential, nested, secondary categories, whereby said digital content management system shell browser empowers a user to easily locate, organize, and correlate said data items, and said first treeview control's, and said second treeview control's, respective classificatory category value pairings as existent within said data items.
