Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for processing search results. In one aspect, a transition from a first search result environment to a second, different search result environment is done in a manner that preserves the user experience of focusing on a selected search result. The transition can be facilitated by an intermediate search result environment that appears during the transition from the first search result environment to the second search result environment. The intermediate search result environment displays search result data of a search result that was selected in the first search result environment. The search result data that is displayed is, for example, data that was provided for display in the first search result environment. For example, in the case of image search results, the search result data that is displayed is a thumbnail image of the image search result.
Abstract:
Client-side and server-side methods for displaying event data within a map that is displayed on a computing device are presented. In an example, the method includes receiving a request for mapping data including a request location defining a current geographic location of the client computing device, determining a request time corresponding to the request, the request time based on a time the mapping data request was sent by the client computing device. The method also includes retrieving mapping data corresponding to the request location and determining that an event in an event database includes an event time that occurs within a threshold time of the request time. The method further includes retrieving event data corresponding to the event that occurs within the threshold time of the request time and sending the retrieved mapping data and the retrieved event data to the client computing device in response to the request.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus for processing image content items. In one aspect, a method includes generating an image display environment for a first image content item on an image content item page resource between a first row and a second row of image content items. The user device expands a thumbnail of the image content item from first dimensions to second dimensions, and displays the expanded thumbnail in the image display environment. Concurrently with the thumbnail processing, the user device requests a first image resource referenced by the first image content item, and, upon receipt of the first image resource, generates an adjusted version of the first image resource that meets the second dimensions. The user device then displays the adjusted version of the first image resource in the image display environment in place of the expanded version of the first image content item.
