Abstract: The presentation of content items within a hosting item is typically performed by on-demand retrieval of the content item from a content server. However, on-demand retrieval may impose an undesirable delay in the presentation of the content; may spontaneously alter the layout of the hosting item; and/or may involve an expedient but unsophisticated selection among the content items of a content store (e.g., random selection), resulting in the presentation of irrelevant and/or redundant content. Instead, a device may prefetch content items into a content cache, such that when a user later requests to view a hosting item, the device may insert a content item selected from the content cache. The device may also notify the content server when a content item has been presented to the user; by marking the content item as such, the content server may provide additional, fresh content for the device content cache.

Abstract: One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for verifying a user of a service are provided. That is, the service (e.g., a social network, an email service, a website, etc.) may attempt to verify that a user is an owner of an account with the service by sending a verification code to a device registered by the user with the service, such as through a text message. Because the service may be hosted across multiple data centers for resiliency against failure, the verification code and a verification attempt counter may be stored within a particular data store. An identification of the data store may be encoded into the verification code. In this way, the verification code may be sent to the device, such that when the user submits the verification code back to the service, the verification code is routed to the correct data store for verification.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for mapping entities to social profile data. Social data regarding an entity (e.g., a notable entity, celebrity, movie, famous brand, etc.) is filtered from one or more open knowledge databases to produce filtered social data regarding the entity (or entities). The filtered social data is clustered and classified with respect to the entity according to a hash function to produce candidate results related to the entity. Ambiguous results are then filtered out from the candidate results, thereby automatically mapping facts contained in one or more of the open knowledge databases to a social profile associated with the entity.
