Abstract: Systems and methods for entity-based searching with content selection include receiving a search query and determining that the search query corresponds to a search entity. The search entity may be associated with an online action, thereby forming an entity-action pair. Auction parameters that specify the entity-action pair may be used to select third-party content. A visual layout for the third-party content may be generated based on the relationship between a search query and the entity-action pair and used as part of the presentation of the third-party content on a search result screen.

Abstract: Systems and methods for a feed upload for search entity based content selection include receiving a feed. The feed has feed items that include identification data, a feed item type, and an online action. The identification data and item type are used to identify a unique search entity that corresponds to a named entity in the physical world. An entity-action pair is generated based on the identified search entity.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium for providing content to a user. A method includes: receiving a query; receiving query results based on the query; determining for each of a predetermined number of top results entities associated therewith; using the determined entities to either augment or filter the query producing an enhanced query; and using the enhanced query to identify one or more sponsored content items for presentation to a user along with the query results.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus related to identifying aspects of media files that are provided to users and ranking query suggestions based on the aspects. Some implementations are directed to ranking the query suggestions of the user who was provided the media file. Some implementations are directed to ranking the query suggestions of a second user that is in the same grouping as the first user. Some implementations are directed to ranking the query suggestions of the first user based on aspects that are related to the provided media file, but not directly associated with the provided media file.

Abstract: Techniques, systems, and computer readable media are provided that allow for portions of media items to be cached, prior to selection of any media item for playback by a user. The portion of a media item to be cached is determined based upon one or more caching factors, such as the likelihood that a user will select the media item for playback. Playback of a media item thus may begin without any noticeable buffering or caching, immediately upon selection of the media item by the user.

Abstract translation: 提供技术，系统和计算机可读介质，其允许在选择用于用户回放的任何媒体项目之前缓存媒体项目的部分。 要缓存的媒体项目的部分基于一个或多个高速缓存因素来确定，诸如用户将选择要播放的媒体项目的可能性。 因此，当用户选择媒体项目时，媒体项目的播放可以开始而没有任何明显的缓冲或缓存。

Abstract: Systems and methods for entity-based searching with content selection include receiving a search query and determining that the search query corresponds to a search entity. The search entity may be associated with an online action, thereby forming an entity-action pair. Auction parameters that specify the entity-action pair may be used to select third-party content. Search results based on the search query, the search entity, and the selected third-party content may be provided for presentation as part of a search result screen.

Abstract: The subject technology discloses configurations for providing comments restricted to a set of users for web content on a web page. In one implementation, a widget is provided that enables a content provider or a user to provide comments restricted to the set of users in a manner that does not disrupt an existing implementation or presentation of publicly viewable web content that already provides public comments from visitors of the web site. In particular, the widget may be provided as a plugin or extension in the user's web browser, or be integrated in the web page by the content provider. The scope of the comments restricted to the set of users are defined by one or more access control lists, which allow the comments restricted to the set of users to be only viewable by a specified set of users (and not viewable by other users).

Abstract: A system, computer program product and method for dynamically digesting one or more user notifications based at least in part on one or more rules are disclosed. In some implementations, the system includes a notification receiver module, a rule application module and a notification digestion module. The notification receiver module receives notifications including a first notification. The rule application module obtains rules for determining a send condition including a delay time and a maximum delay time, sets the delay time and the max delay time, determines whether another notification is received within the delay time, resets the delay time responsive to another notification being received within the delay time, and repeats the determination and delay time reset until a send condition occurs. The notification digestion module, responsive to the send condition occurring, digests the notification(s) received prior to the send condition and sends a digested notification to the user.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for using second screen devices to augment media engagement metrics. In one aspect, a method includes accessing user activity data describing user activities performed by a user on a first user device during a first time period, and accessing data describing presentation of one or more content items during the first time period on second user devices. For the first user device, determining based on the user activity data, for each of a plurality of second time periods that are sub-periods of the first time period, a first level of user engagement with the first user device, and determining, based on the user activity data, for each second time period that is a sub-period of the first time period, a second level of user engagement with the one or more content items presented.
