Abstract: Technologies are provided for filtering user's actions based on user's mood. User's actions may include online actions. To prevent “in the heat of the moment” actions, which a user may regret later, a mood based filter may identify a user action such as posting a message to a social network, a professional network, an email network, a blog, or an instant message network. An automatic system action may then be taken based on the detected user's mood. In some examples, the user's mood may be assigned to a numeric or alphanumeric category. Various system actions such as blocking or delaying the user action may be tied or associated to the user's mood category through one or more predefined, customizable rules. In other examples, a user confirmation of the user action may also be included in addition to the automatic system action.

Abstract: Technologies are generally described herein for writing data to either volatile or nonvolatile memory. An estimated time for a last write operation to occur and an estimated time to a power down event are determined. A threshold time is generated from the estimated time for a last write operation to occur and the estimated time to a power down event. The threshold time represents time at which a cost to write to volatile memory may become greater than a cost to write to nonvolatile memory. The cost may be based at least in part on the need to copy data stored in a volatile memory to be persisted after a power down event from the volatile to the nonvolatile memory.
