within a file system and by use of system folders. We therefore, do not
agree with Appellants urging in the Brief and Reply Brief that Anderson

Anderson teaches away from the claimed invention. The artisan well
recognizes the teaching value in the background of Anderson beginning at

line 5 with respect to the action list shown in figure 5 (particularly the
discussion at column 8, lines 37- 42) and the discussion at column 12, lines
20 through 61. These teachings indicate that the user maintains the ability to
manually organize images from those saved in MyShoeBox and to

new web album, or a new page within an existing album and to otherwise
parse the images to extract other types of data. The teachings associated
with these action lists permits the user to label with names the associated
files and albums such as those discussed in the reference portion of column
12. These action lists are in effect a list of key words to the extent recited in
