The method involves accepting or determining criteria characterizing information of interest to a user, and processing a stream of documents, wherein each document is tagged with one or more key content terms, and theme data is generated. The stream is filtered based on whether the criteria apply to each document, the documents in the filtered stream are clustered, and the clustered documents (including the theme data) are presented to the user via a visual user interface.
