Displaying network content searches on mobile devices involves obtaining results of a network content request via a mobile device. A geolocation of at least one object associated with the results of the network content request is also obtained. A scene is viewed in a camera view of the mobile device. A virtual location is determined in the camera view. The virtual location represents the actual location of the object relative to the scene contained in the camera view. A graphic representing the object is then displayed at the virtual location in the camera view.

1. A method comprising: causing at least in part, receiving of network content at a mobile device in response to a network search query, wherein the network content is based at least in part on a geolocation of the mobile device;determining, based at least in part on a second geolocation associated with at least one object described in the network content, a virtual location in the camera view associated with the actual location of the object relative to a scene contained in the camera view; andcausing at least in part, displaying via the mobile device a graphic representing the object at the virtual location in the camera view, wherein displaying the graphic representing the object comprises differentiating a display characteristic of the graphic based on a distance of the object from the mobile device. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: measuring the geolocation of the mobile device via the mobile device; andincluding an indicator of the geolocation of the mobile device in the network search query, wherein the network content is based on the indicator included in the network search query. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the network search query further includes geographic boundary data used for further filtering the network content. 4. The method of claim 3, wherein the geographic boundary data comprises a bounding volume determined at least in part based on the camera view. 5. The method of claim 3, wherein the geographic boundary data comprises a distance from the mobile device. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein the display characteristic comprises any combination of size, color, line style, and transparency of the graphic. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the display characteristic comprises a level of detail used to describe the object that is represented by the graphic. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the display characteristic comprises an indicator of a special offer by a vendor associated with the object that is represented by the graphic. 9. The method of claim 1, further comprising defining two or more zones, each zone being differentiated based on distances from the mobile device, and wherein the display characteristic of the graphic is differentiated based on the object being located in a selected one of the zones. 10. An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; andat least one memory including computer program instructions;the at least one memory and the computer program instructions configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus at least to: receive network content in response to a network search query, wherein the network content is based at least in part on a geolocation of the apparatus;determining, based on a second geolocation associated with at least one object described in the network content, a virtual location in the camera view that associated with the actual location of the object relative to a scene contained in the camera view; anddisplay a graphic representing the object at the virtual location in the camera view, wherein displaying the graphic representing the object comprises differentiating a display characteristic of the graphic based on a distance of the object from the apparatus. 11. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program instructions, with the at least one processor, further cause the apparatus to: measure the geolocation of the apparatus; andinclude an indicator of the geolocation of the apparatus in the network search query, wherein the network content is based on the indicator included in the network search query. 12. The apparatus of claim 11, wherein the network search query further includes geographic boundary data used for further filtering the network content. 13. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the geographic boundary data comprises a bounding volume determined at least in part based on the camera view. 14. The apparatus of claim 12, wherein the geographic boundary data comprises a distance from the apparatus. 15. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the display characteristic comprises any combination of size, color, line style, and transparency of the graphic. 16. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the display characteristic comprises a level of detail used to describe the object that is represented by the graphic. 17. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the display characteristic comprises an indicator of a special offer by a vendor associated with the object that is represented by the graphic. 18. The apparatus of claim 10, wherein the at least one memory and the computer program instructions, with the at least one processor, further cause the apparatus to define two or more zones, each zone being differentiated based on distances from the apparatus, and wherein the display characteristic of the graphic is differentiated based on the object being located in a selected one of the zones. 19. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon which are executable by a processor to cause an apparatus at least to: receive network content in response to a network search query, wherein the network content is based at least in part on a geolocation of the apparatus;determining, based on a second geolocation associated with at least one object described in the network content, a virtual location in the camera view that associated with the actual location of the object relative to a scene contained in the camera view; anddisplay a graphic representing the object at the virtual location in the camera view, wherein displaying the graphic representing the object comprises differentiating a display characteristic of the graphic based on a distance of the object from the apparatus. 20. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 19, wherein the instructions stored are further executable to cause the apparatus to: measure the geolocation of the apparatus; andinclude an indicator of the geolocation of the apparatus in the search query, wherein the network content is based on the indicator included in the network search query. 21. The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 20, wherein the network search query further includes geographic boundary data used for further filtering the network content.
