Abstract

A method and system for providing information that is responsive to a freeform request. The method includes the step of receiving a first request from a client device of a user, wherein the first request includes a first string. The method also includes searching a plurality of additional strings for a match for the first string, wherein the plurality of additional strings are associated with rules for retrieving information. If a match is found for the first string, information corresponding to the additional string causing the match is retrieved. The retrieving is accomplished using the rule associated with the additional string causing the match. The retrieved information can then be sent to the first user. If a match is not found for the first string, the first string is stored and one or more further requests immediately following the first request are monitored. If a match is found for one of the additional requests, the first string is added to the plurality of additional strings and the first string is associated with the same rule for retrieving information that is associated with the further string causing the match.
