    Abstract: An engagement time computer system for serving online content based on user engagement duration includes an output device, at least one memory, and one or more processors. The processors are configured to determine a historical engagement time of an online user and to identify a plurality of online content items. Each online content item of the plurality of online content items has a target engagement time. The processors are further configured to receive a request for a content item. The request is associated with the online user. The processors are also configured to select a first online content item from the plurality of online content items based at least in part on the historical engagement time of the online user and the target engagement time of the first online content item and to transmit the first online content item for display to the online user.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for providing content. Co-located devices are identified, including first and second devices associated with first and second users. A determination is made that a device is configured to be viewable by multiple users based on device characteristics. Use data is gathered that is associated with current sessions associated with users related to their use of their respective devices, including first data related to the use of the first device and second data related to the use of the second device. The first and second data are aggregated and evaluated to identify a first content item to present on the first device. Second different content items are selected for display on other co-located devices based at least in part on the first content item.

    Abstract: Data transfer in a secure processing environment is provided. A digital assistant can receive audio input detected by a microphone of a computing device. The digital assistant can determine, based on the audio input, to invoke a third-party application associated with the computing device. The digital assistant can generate, responsive to the determination to invoke the third-party application, a packaged data object. The digital assistant can forward, to the third-party application invoked by the digital assistant component to execute in a secure processing environment on the computing device, the packaged data object. The third-party application can transmit, responsive to a digital component request triggered in the third-party application, the packaged data object to a digital component selector to execute a real-time selection process based on the packaged data object.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for including information in an invitation from a first to connect with a second user that identifies a context regarding how the first user found the second user. A system can include a request component configured to receive, at a first network source, information identifying a second user that a first user has selected to send an invitation to connect with at the first network source, a context component configured to determine a context regarding selection of the second user by the first user, including where the first user found the information identifying the second user, and a generation component configured to generate an invitation that invites the second user to connect with the first user at the first network source. The invitation comprises first user identification information and context information identifying the context regarding the selection of the second user by the first user.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for passing account authentication information via parameters. A server can provide, to a client device, an account parameter derived from an account credential used to authenticate a first application to insert into a link. The link can include an address referencing a second application. The account parameter can be passed from the first application to the second application responsive to an interaction on the link. The server can receive from the second application of the client device, subsequent to passing the account parameter from the first application to the second application, a request to authenticate the second application including the account parameter. The server can authenticate the client device for the second application using the account parameter. The server can transmit, responsive to authenticating the client device for the second application, an authentication indication to the second application of the client device.
