Auto-zoomable snippets in multiple snippet windows

Multiple information snippets are simultaneously presented in a computer screen. Auto-zooming of a snippet may be provided to enable the user to quickly obtain additional information associated with a selected snippet. Concurrent with the automatic zooming of one of the snippets on a screen, attributes including size, location, context, etc. of the other snippets on the screen may be adjusted to maintain a reasonable relationship with the zoomed snippet. The size and other display characteristics of the snippets on the screen may be automatically determined and adjusted so that the content of each snippet, and the relationship among all the snippets in the screen, may be presented to the user in a reasonable and logical manner.
