    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, in a group conversation in a message thread on a messaging application, a request to access a game from inside the message thread from one or more users of a group of users associated with the message thread; generating an anonymized context identifier (ID) for the message thread; providing the context ID to a game bot associated with the game, the game bot being a software agent configured to act automatically on behalf of the game, the context ID being used by the game bot to interact with the group of users associated with the message thread; and sending, by the game bot using the context ID, instructions for presenting a game window within the message thread on one or more instances of messaging applications running on one or more client systems associated with the one or more users of the group.

    Abstract: Techniques to manage client location detection are described. In one embodiment an apparatus may comprise a location-based services support component and a client management component. The location-based services support component may be operative to determine that a network service is scheduled for a location update from a mobile device, determine a location accuracy based on the network service, and update the network service with a received location of the mobile device. The client management component may be operative to transmit a location request to the mobile device, the location request specifying the location accuracy determined based on the network service and receive a response to the location request from the mobile device, the response comprising the location of the mobile device conforming to the specified location accuracy. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing a log associated with a user. The log includes a number of entries that each indicate a geo-location of the user at a particular time of day of a particular day of a week. At least some of the data points being based on a geo-location determined and reported by a mobile computing device of the user without manual user input. The method also includes determining one or more geo-location centroids based on a distance between the respective geo-location centroid and each geo-location data point. Each geo-location centroid is representative of one or more of the geo-location data points obtained during the particular time of day of the particular day of a week.

    Abstract: In one embodiment, a mobile client system of a first user may determine a first location of the mobile client system, where the first user corresponds to a first node of a social graph of the online social network, the social graph comprises a plurality of nodes and a plurality of edges connecting the nodes, and each of the edges between two of the nodes represents a single degree of separation between them. The mobile client system may send an indication of the first location and one or more and one or more notification preferences to a computing system associated with the online social network. The mobile client system may receive a notification referencing one or more second users of the online social network, where each second user is associated with a mobile client system having a second location within a threshold distance of the first location.
