An information aggregation and synthesization system and process. The present invention provides aggregation and packaging of structured or unstructured information from disparate sources such as those available on a network such as the Internet. A network compatible/addressable interface device is operated by a user. The network interface device communicates with local datastores or network accessible datastores via an addressing scheme such as Uniform Resource Locator addresses (URLs) utilized by the Internet. Data passing between the network interface device and the datastores is accessed, polled, and retrieved through an intermediary gateway system. Such aggregated information is then synthesized, customized, personalized and localized to meet the information resource requests specified by the user via the network interface device.

[ What is claimed:] [1.] An information aggregation and synthesization process, which process comprises:operating a network addressable interface device by a user;communicating between said network addressable interface device and a plurality of local or network accessible datastores through network specific addressing means, said network specific addressing means including Uniform Resource Locators (URLs);accessing, retrieving and processing data in said datastores passing from said datastores to said network addressable interface device through an intermediary gateway system, said intermediary gateway system capable of being dynamically reconfigured by modifying an address of said datastores to direct data through said intermediary gateway system;retrieving and synthesizing said data retrieved from each said datastore while passing through said intermediary gateway system to derive patterns, preferences and trends; andmodifying each said Uniform Resource Locator (URL) so that said data retrieval is always through said intermediary gateway system.
