Abstract:
A system and method for displaying a post unit within a stream interface are provided. A stream interface is provided for display and comprises at least one post unit. For the at least one post unit, post content and a first interface set are provided for display on a first side of the post unit. The first interface set includes one or more interface components for interacting with the post content, and an expand interface component for expanding the first interface set. An indication of a user selection of the expand interface component is received. In response to the received indication, and for the at least one post unit, the post content and a second interface set are provided for display on a second side of the post unit. The second interface set includes a greater number or a different class of interface components for interacting with the post content.
Abstract:
Methods and systems are provided for customizing an action. In some implementations, voice input is received from a user and a context is determined from the voice input. Potential contextual data is identified based on the context and the voice input. A level of confidence is determined for an association of the potential contextual data and the context. An action is performed based on the voice input, the potential contextual data, and the level of confidence. The potential contextual data is used to customize the action.
Abstract:
A system and methods for managing applications on a mobile device. One method includes: receiving context data related to the mobile device; assigning a situational utility score to one or more applications available in an application repository by analyzing the context data and tags associated with the one or more applications to determine which applications have situational usefulness; and when a first application has a situational utility score greater than a first threshold value, displaying a prompt on the mobile device to install the first application.

Abstract:
Methods, systems, apparatus, and computer programs encoded on computer storage medium, for receiving a set of expected activities, each expected activity in the set of expected activities including an activity that is expected to be performed by a computing device, determining one or more time periods based on the set of expected activities, determining one or more expected rates of change of state of charge (SOC) of a battery of the mobile computing device by, for each time period of the one or more time periods, determining an expected rate of change of SOC based on a base rate of change of SOC and one or more expected activities associated with the time period, and determining an estimated remaining time based on the one or more expected rates of change of SOC, the remaining time corresponding to a time at which an expected SOC is less than a threshold SOC.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus for providing customized content in knowledge panels. In one aspect, a method includes receiving input from a user device; identifying, based on historical data describing user interactions for the user device, a topic of interest; identifying an entity responsive to the input; identifying eligible content items that are eligible for presentation in a knowledge panel that is to be presented with results responsive to the input, wherein at least one eligible content item is obtained from a first resource and at least one second eligible content item is obtained from a second resource; ranking the eligible content items based, in part, on the topic of interest; selecting one or more of the eligible content items based on the rankings; and providing, to the user device, data that causes each selected eligible content item to be presented in the knowledge panel in response to the input.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for receiving a search query from a searching user, defining a set of users based on the query, the set of users being a sub-set of a super-set of users and including one or more users that have submitted queries that are determined to correspond to the search query, providing an electronic document comprising instructions that, when executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to display a search results page including search results responsive to the search query and a connection interface, the connection interface displaying at least one indication of users of the set of users, and transmitting the electronic document to a computing device associated with the searching user.
Abstract:
Implementations herein include receiving a first signal from a first mobile computing device, the first signal indicative of a first state change and receiving a second signal from a second mobile computing device, the second signal indicative of a second state change. The method may also include determining that the first state change and the second state change are related, and that the first mobile computing device and the second mobile computing device are currently located at a common geographic location. The method may further include determining that a third mobile computing device is currently located at the common geographic location. The method may also include transmitting to the third mobile computing device, a third signal indicative of a recommended state change, the recommended state change being based on the first state change at the first mobile computing device and the second state change at the second mobile computing device.
