Abstract

A system and method arrange an manage content for an on-screen user interface. Content, such as a television program, is representatively displayed as a raindrop. The raindrop moves form a coming region past a present line region as the content it represents becomes current (i.e., the television program becomes live). The term 'content' relates to any type of programming or information that can be broadcast or otherwise transmitted to a user.
