Systems and methods to search with a mobile device

Abstract

Systems and methods to search with a mobile device are described. The system may receive a request, over a network, from a device. The request may include search information to search a database and location information including a first location that identifies a location of the device. The system may further generate search results based on the search information that describes items and arranges their descriptions based on the search information, the first location, and a current event corresponding to the location of the device. The system may further arrange the descriptions of the items as a first arrangement based on an order associated with a second location that is associated with a historical event that matches the current event. The system may further communicate a user interface, over the network, to the device. The user interface include the descriptions of the items in accordance with the first arrangement.
