A unified platform obtains, stores, and shares search results based on user profiles or groups with a common interest. User profiles or group profiles may be used to identify categories containing objects related to a common interest, and the objects may be selected for placement in a graphical user interface from which they may be purchased by or for the user. The objects may preferably be virtual objects stored in a virtual locker or other virtual display unit. Users are able to conduct web-based searches for products or services from different websites and store dimensional representations of virtual products or services in a unified platform.
